Los Alcazares is situated on the calm waters of the Mar
Menor, our newly built apartment is situated approximately 10 mins walk from the 7km long sandy beach situated on the
Mar Menor a large shallow salt water lagoon, ideal for children, separated from the Mediterranean by a strip of land
called La Manga.
Because the water is shallow it feels rather warm and doesn't give you any
of the Brrr! factor which you get with the Mediterranean!! The Mar Menor is popular for all types of water sports
& bathers alike, there is a nautical centre on the beach front where you can try your hand at Jet Skiing, windsurfing
or sailing if you are feeling brave.
The promenade is lined with Tapas bars to give a real Spanish atmosphere,
so you are able to step straight off the beach and indulge in a mid-day snack or two.
It is a 5 minute stroll to the excellent Mercadona supermarket which
is located in the new Baliniero square, which is home to a new 5 star hotel & numerous bars & restaurants.(Bayside,
La Diva and Angelina Pizzeria are our family favourites)
There are several golf courses all located within a 15 min drive from
Los Alcazares. The city of Murcia with its magnificent cathedral & numerous department stores is well worth a visit as
is the historic city of Cartagenga with its famous historic Roman sites & magnificent Harbour. The region of Murcia has
an average of 320 days sunshine a year.
