The nearest seaside town is San Juan de los Terreros where the beaches are excellent for families as they are gently shelving. The town itself has good amenities and has recently begun upgrading its beachfront, including a brand new esplanade with wooden beach-side bars and restaurants. The coastline is unspoilt as large-scale and high-rise development is not permitted on the frontline, and no building can rise above 3 storeys. This means that while there are plenty of tourist amenities, the area retains an authentic Spanish feel, with no shortage of friendly local bars and restaurants to while away a pleasant few hours.
The ancient Moorish hill town of Mojacar is a short drive away. Popular with writers and artists, this settlement is a warren of narrow streets lined with shops, boutiques, restaurants and small galleries. It is an attractive place to visit and has a weekly market. 2km away on the coast is Mojacar Playa, stretching for 9km along sandy beaches, with bars and restaurants to suit every taste.
