Beaches are for winter, too

Enjoying the sun and the sea outside the summer months is a true privilege. La Manga is bounded by two seas: the Mar Menor and the Mediterranean, each with its own characteristics. The Mar Menor is known for its warm, shallow waters, making it an ideal place for watersports like windsurfing, paddleboarding and sailing. There are schools that offer classes for beginners and experts alike. On the other hand, the beaches of the Mediterranean Sea are perfect for long walks along the shore and enjoying the tranquil nature of the surroundings.

Besides the beaches of La Manga itself, there are many others nearby worth exploring. One of them is Cabo de Palos, next to a charming fishing village with a beautiful coastline and a picturesque marina. Others are the beaches of nearby Calblanque Natural Park. This protected reserve offers stunning coastal scenery, sand dunes, cliffs and pristine beaches where you can enjoy comforting walks, the ocean, and bird watching while immersing yourself in the calm and beauty of the park.

La Manga in winter is a perfect destination for those who want to get out and active rather than hibernating at home. Our residents at La Manga Club with houses on a golf course are already enjoying the benefits of traveling to this paradise at any time of the year. What about you?
