About Murcia
The region of Murcia enjoys one of the most temperate climates in Spain. The coast of Murcia stretches 250km from the populated warm waters of the Mar Menor down to the quieter beaches of Las Aquilas and is popularly known as Costa Calida, the Warm Coast.

Murcia is still developing in comparison to its neighbouring regions of Valencia and Andulucia, making it the perfect discovery with its relatively lower house prices and miles of unspoilt coast line and charming villages.

The undulating rise of the mountains lends a hand to spectacular scenery. Take a car, walk or bicycle through the Sierra Espunas, Murcia’s national park and simply enjoy the serenity and breath-taking views.

The Mar Menor, a salt water lagoon, is the regions most populated resort area due to it’s long stretch of beach and calm, warm waters which makes it popular with tourists and locals. The well renowned resort of La Manga hosts trendy bars and clubs and is frequented by footballers and pop stars.

With an average temperature of 21 degrees annually, for the beginner or the avid golfer, Murcia can offer all year round Golfing with more Golf Resorts being developed further inland.

Discover the historical City of Murcia with its noticeable Moorish architecture and the city's impressive Cathedral. Unlike many other cities in Spain, the city of Murcia although energetic with hustle and bustle, still enjoys a relaxed and leisurely attitude. The city comes alive in the early evening where you can enjoy a drink at one of its many bars and cafes or browse the shops.
