COSTA CALIDA REGION
Nestled between the Costa Blanca and Costa Almeria
lies the un spoilt Region of the Costa Calida. Offering a stark contrast to other
commercialised and over developed areas the Province of Murcia boasts rugged coastline,
spectacular mountain views, pine forests and the Mar Menor lagoon.
This is the least
known region of Spain ... walled off to the North, East and South by the inland mountain ranges
of Andalucia, Castilla and Valencia. Citrus, Almond and Olive groves are farmed here using the
inherited systems of irrigation.
The last Moorish stronghold in Spain, the area is brimming
with fascinating history and architecture. Murcia City, the Province's capital is now a bustling
centre, blending the old part of the City with its magnificent Cathedral with its busy new commercial
and shopping areas. Cartagena, a City and Port from where many a conquering "Armada" sailed
is now the site of recently discovered Roman remains which include an Amphitheatre, many artifacts can
be seen in the dedicated Museum. There is also a Museum dedicated to the history of the Navy.
Traveling around between pretty villages it would not be unheard of to have to stop for the local goat
herdsman or horse and cart but, perhaps this will remind you that you are in the "Real Spain".
Take a trip to Puerto de Mazarron where you will find beautiful beaches, bars, shops and restaurants.
The Port is now undergoing modest development offering excellent opportunities for the holiday home
or investment purchase.
The Mar Menor a 170 sq km lagoon separated from the sea by a stretch
of land known as 'La Manga', the reputed therapeutic qualities of its high salt and iodine
content together with the 'healing muds' of Mota de la Calcetera have tourists flocking to the
area every year. Huge investment over the last 3 years has made this area very special with a number of
first class golf courses are already being constructed.
Further to the North of the Region lies
Parque Natural de Espu??a haven for hikers and climbers with 240 sqkm of unspoilt highlands and pine forests.
This really is an amazing area for permanent living or for long special holidays.
The Costa Calida ...
A great place to invest in.
