Costa Calida (Alicante)

Costa Calida (Alicante) holidays

Sun, sea and sand is practically guaranteed on the “warm coast”. This is where balmy seas are ideal for swimming, sun-kissed beaches beckon for bathing and the historic streets of Cartagena and Murcia are set for exploring. In the middle of it all is the exclusive resort of La Manga, where the golf courses are famed for being some of the best in Spain – and don’t be surprised if you bump into the odd celeb. As for the Mar Menor lagoon nearby, it’s one of the best swim spots on the Med. Boutique shopping, sensational seafood and swish nightclubs are also on the agenda, so if it’s high-end R&R you’re after, you’ve come to the right place.

La Manga

A narrow sandbar placed along south-eastern Spain, La Manga divides the Mediterranean from the beautiful inland lagoon of the Mar Menor, ‘little sea’.

Sun-kissed shores

Like everything else in the region, the seas here are warm, making them perfect for swimming or even just a quick paddle. The beaches are swathed in soft golden sand and backed by bar-lined promenades, dunes or pine forests depending on which one you pick. You won’t leave disappointed.

A sheltered spot

The Mar Menor, or ‘little sea’, is a saltwater lagoon separated from the Mediterranean by a spit of land known as La Manga. Its mild, shallow waters and pristine sands have made it the region’s most exciting area, so it’s no wonder it pulls in the crowds.

Hannibal’s capital

The historic city of Cartagena has been an important naval port for over 2,000 years. Hannibal and his elephants made it their Spanish base en route from Carthage to Rome. The city’s old town’s peppered with Roman, Phoenician, Byzantine and Moorish monuments, including an impressive amphitheatre and two fortresses!
