What to do in Costa Calida |
Shop until you drop
 |
On a summer morning, a trip to a local street market in one of the
towns around the Mar Manor is quite a tradition. Amongst other
things, you are sure to find a variety of cured products, fruit,
vegetables and clothes. Market day is on Monday morning in San
Pedro del Pinatar, Tuesday and Saturday mornings in Los Alcazares,
Wednesday morning in Santiago de la Ribera and Sunday morning in
Cabo de Palos. Don’t forget to wear a hat to protect yourself from
the sun.
For a fantastic selection of clothes, shoes and leather goods you
need to visit the cities of Murcia and Cartagena. Shops are
generally open from 9am to 2pm and then again from 5pm to 8pm
Monday to Saturday. |
Cycle around the Mar Menor
 |
You can hire a bike and cycle virtually all the way around the Mar
Menor along trails, dirt tracks and an old royal drive-way, none
of which ever stray far from the coast. The 56.4 km cycling route
around the Mar Menor is a pleasant and not difficult ride that can
be covered in about 7 hours. There is just one stretch, in the
area known as Las Encanizadas at the northern end of La Manga,
where various canals prevent crossing by bike. |
Wind Power
 |
Harness the power of the wind, sailing, windsurfing or
kite-surfing. Three very popular water sports in the calm waters
of the Mar Menor and surrounding areas such as Cabo de Palos and
La Manga. This saltwater lagoon is ideal for jet-skiing, kayaking
and water-skiing.
If you like riding the thermals (paragliding or hang-gliding) you
can enjoy both sports in the Sierra de la Muela in Alhama de
Murcia, one of the villages in the Sierra Espuna. The ridge here
reaches a height of 631 metres and is considered one of the best
areas for free flight. |
Would you like to learn to sail?
 |
The Mar Menor Water Sports Consortium offer a wide range of
activities and services for all the family. There are more than 25
water sports centres where you can learn, perfect and enjoy
sailing, windsurfing, kayaking, jet-skiing or diving at any time
of year. |
Like a fish in water
 |
The Cabo de Palos-Islas Hormigas marine reserve offers diving
enthusiasts the opportunity to explore the depths in an almost
virgin marine environment. There are many different species of sea
life, as well as a number of well-preserved wrecks that are now
home to barracuda, tuna, moray and conger eels. |
