For golf enthusiasts, there is an 18 hole course only 5 mins drive away plus there are many excellent golf clubs in the region. The new Polaris World Jack Nicklaus 'Golf Trail' consisting of 18 holes courses and the very popular La Manga Golf Club, are all within approx 20-30 minutes drive, further details provided in this link.

Mazarron & Puerto de Mazarron are in fact 2 towns in one. There is the main town with its Town Hall, daily indoor fresh produce market, banks, medical facilities, shops, etc, and then less than a 5 minute drive away there is its pretty little seafront sister, Puerto de Mazarron. Where you will find a harbour and marina along with superb sandy beaches and secluded coves.
The area is still 'very Spanish' and this is reflected in the local restaurants, tapas bars, shops and the very popular Sunday markets which should not be missed. Visitors have the choice of many different beaches (including a secluded nudist one) and coves at which to sunbathe and swim in the sea. The seafront paseos between Bolnuevo, Mazarron, Isla Plana and La Azohía are perfect places to enjoy your warm evening strolls, maybe after dinner in one of the many restaurants along the sea front. A backdrop of mountains rounds off the scenic area, which is yet unspoilt but popular with the local Spanish from Murcia/Cartagena and Madrid in the summer.

Costa Calida & Murcia is situated in the SE of Spain, between Andalucía region and Valencia/Alicante and is well supported by a whole new infrastructure of major motorways and the expanding airports of Alicante, Murcia (San Javier) and Almeria. Renting a car in Murcia is very easy via the internet, with pick-ups and drop-offs at all the airports, and it is considerably cheaper than renting a car in the UK.

This region has the most sunshine in Europe (320days per year) with average annual temperatures of 21 C degrees.  Its micro-climate, generated through the protection of the surrounding mountain ranges, ensures mild winters and gentle evening summer breezes. Many chose the Costa Calida region for its wonderful sandy beaches and the unspoilt coves along its 250km of coastline, surrounded by mountains and high cliffs. It is ideal for walking, cycling and hiking, or simply strolling by the sea. The crystal clear blue waters are superb for swimming and the diving schools in the area offer a variety of opportunities to learn and test your sea diving skills.

The spectacular Nature Reserve of Sierra Espuna is only 25 mins drive away, with varied walking and cycling routes and opportunities for horse riding. There are excellent restaurants where you can sit on sunny terraces enjoying a traditional Spanish meal whilst taking in the panoramic views from high altitudes and catching some amazing sunsets.

Murcia city is the cultural and business capital of this region, and provides numerous opportunities to enjoy different musical events, art exhibitions and a vast collection of modern and traditional shops to meet all your shopping needs. The historical towns and ports of Mazarron, Aguilas and Cartagena have interesting seafronts, marinas and protected parks and green spaces and the regular traditional markets are excellent for presents and fresh produce. In the old town of Lorca you can stroll through the artisan quarter where visitors can see the traditional techniques of weaving, clay pottery work and basket work, with many handmade items on sale in workshops and the local markets. Throughout this region, visitors can experience the excitement and community spirit of the local fiestas held in Murcia, Totana, Lorca, Cartagena, and Mazarron during Spring, Easter and Summer. Caravaca de la Cruz, one of the world's five holy cities is well worth a visit.

Only 20 minutes drive away, is the prestigious 'La Manga Club' with its five star Hyatt Hotel, 3 x 18 holes golf courses, tennis and football centres and much more. The Mar Menor (basically an interior sea) is the only one of its kind in Europe with very warm, shallow, calm waters making it perfect for families with young children.  Visitors may be interested in trying the many medicinal mineral treatments on offer derived from the salt lakes.

The area is very easily accessible, only two hours flight time from the UK, with many airlines now offering several routes at very affordable prices. See the links section.
