Pronounced 'los-alcatha-res' is an old fishing and saltwater spa town on the Costa Calida (warm coast) in the Murcia region of Spain. The town is on the western shore of the Mar Menor, a saltwater lagoon separated from the Mediterranean Sea by a 22 kilometre long strip of land called La Manga. The Mar Menor is always 3-4 degrees C warmer than the Mediterranean and the area enjoys an average of 320 days of sunshine each year. Along it’s shores there are a variety of bars, cafes and restaurants providing drinks, tapas, meals and entertainment. The warm and shallow waters of the Mar Menor make the resort a mecca for sailing, windsurfing and jet skiing enthusiasts.
On the 13th October 1983, the town was afforded Municipal Autonomy and in celebration of this, a week-long outdoor party is held every October featuring live music, shows and firework displays. During the last three days of March every year, Los Alcazares plays host to a large medieval market and numerous events in recollection of the times when Barbary pirates used to raid this stretch of Spain’s coastline during the 15th century. Throughout the last two weeks in August, the town hosts ‘La Huerta’ the international celebration of the region’s status as the market garden of Spain, when Spanish and other European countries gather to display their folklore, handicrafts and gastronomic feasts from their local produce.
Along the 7km promenade you will find over 20 beach bars where you can get a drink or a snack type meal, hire sun beds, parasols and pedallos. Being as flat as it is, cycling is very popular in Los Alcazares and bikes can be hired from several hire shops in the town. You can also hire motorbikes behind the Deutsche Bank in the El Oasis development at the North end of town.
There are 2 tourist information offices in Los Alcazares, which can also provide lots of up-to-date literature regarding local events and places to visit in English.
*Please be aware that Los Alcazares is quite Spanish and with only 2 discos and 1 karaoke bar, the nightlife in the resort is relatively low-key, making it ideal for both relaxing and active family and golf holidays alike. Couples will enjoy the many excellent restaurants in the town or just lazing around on the beach or by the pool all day, however it is worth noting that Los Alcazares will definitely not suit those looking for a lively clubbers-style holiday in the Med.

Cartagena
Head south for about 25kms and you will come to
Spain’s oldest port. Cartagena is one of
Spain’s oldest cities, and still of major
maritime importance to Spain, both commercially
and militarily. A multitude of civilisations have
left their mark on the city as numerous archaeological
sites and museums will testify. In the heart of
the city is a modern shopping area, which spills
down past the tapas bars to the recently revitalised
harbour. Here you will find the World’s
oldest submarine on display, built in 1884 by
a local man Isaac Peral.
Santiago de la Ribera & Lo Pagan are two traditional Spanish seaside towns at the Northern end of the Mar Menor. The beach of Santiago de la Ribera is lined by tall palm trees along the promenade and there are numerous shops, bars and cafes to explore. There is also a new out of town shopping centre called Dos Mares on the outskirts of Santiago de la Ribera, whilst Lo Pagan has a lively fish market on the Esplanade every morning except Sunday.
La
Manga Club
Just a 20 minute drive from Los Alcazares is the
world famous resort of La Manga, which boasts
3 championship golf courses, 28 tennis courts
and a football academy set in a 1400 acre corner
of the Costa Calida. It also contains the 5 star
Regency Hyatt Hotel where the rich and famous
spend their vacations. Look carefully and you
might some premier league footballers or a TV
star. La Manga is where the BBC series ‘Superstars’
was filmed.
Cabo de Palos
Immediately recognisable by its famous lighthouse,
Cabo de Palos is situated at the mainland end
of the La Manga strip around a quaint harbour.
It has plenty of bars and seafood restaurants
and a great view of La Manga. On Sundays there
is a market, where you can find plenty of fresh
local produce and other bargains. For diving enthusiasts,
the Hormigas Islands near Cabo de Palos have been
declared a Marine Reserve due to their exceptional
beauty and the conservation of the sea floor,
but they are also acknowledged by scuba divers
as being one of Spain’s premier dive sites,
due to the large number of unfortunate ships that
have come to grief in the rocky waters around
the area.
Orihuela
& Orihuela Coast
About 45 minutes North East of Los Alcazares is
the city of Orihuela. In centuries past, Orihuela
was the Political and administrative capital of
the region and still displays many remnants of
its proud cultural and religious heritage. Inland
from the coast, Orihuela is one of those cities
that doesn’t look much from the outskirts,
but which blossoms on closer inspection, with
a medieval centre stuffed full of historic treasures.
Every week in July they stage a mock battle in
remembrance of the battles between the Moors and
Christians. There are still lots of traditional
narrow streets, plus bars and a busy market for
you to browse. The Orihuela Costa boasts the beaches
at La Zenia and Cabo Roig, plus the marinas at
Campoamor and Pilar de la Horredada as well as
3 of the Costa Blanca’s most popular golf
courses at Campoamor, Villamartin and Las Ramblas.
Lorca
About 1 hour West of Los Alcazares, Lorca, Spain’s
largest town, is a lively and busy place all year
round and it Semana Santa (Holy Week) celebrations
are the most lavish in Murcia. Huddled around
the ruins of its castle, Lorca retains many beautiful
buildings such as the Collegiate Church of San
Patricio and impressive town houses and mansions
that remind us of it’s opulent past. Lorca
also plays host to an annual Rock Festival, Lorca
Rock, featuring bands such as Iron Maiden, the
Scorpions, Slayer, Lacuna Coil and Dream Theatre
etc.

Keen golfers will be delighted to learn that
they will be spoilt for choice, with no less
than 7 golf courses in the area with more being
built. These include Roda Beach & Golf and
Torre Del Rame in Los Alcazares itself, and Hacienda
del Alamo, Polaris World, Mosa Trajectum, La
Manga (which actually has 3 courses alone), Campoamor
and Villamartin, all within a 25-30 minute drive.
Scuba
diving
For diving enthusiasts, the Hormigas Islands
near Cabo de Palos have been declared a Marine
Reserve due to their exceptional beauty and the
conservation of the sea floor, but they are also
acknowledged by scuba divers as being one of
Spain’s premier dive sites. There are dive
centres along the Costa Calida and Costa Blanca
Coasts at Mazzaron, Aguilas, due to the large
number of unfortunate ships that have come to
grief in the rocky waters around the area.
Other Water sports
The shallow waters and warm winds of the Mar Menor make it ideal for both Windsurfing and Kite boarding, both of which can be hired from various shops and schools along the Mar Menor shoreline. Jet skiing is also very popular and these can also be hired from ABC La Manga sports centre. Pedallos can be hired from the centre of Los Alcazares.
Water
Park
Aquapolis Fun Park near Torrevieja, open from
15th June to 15th September, is an excellent

Wine Guide
Murcian wine comes in two classifications: Vinos de la Tierra which come from Abanilla and Campo de Cartagena; and Denominacion de Origen (DOC), which implies that the wine only comes from a particular area with a particular set of grapes and that the conditions of production are controlled.
The DOC wine region in Murcia takes in Jumilla, Bullas, and Yecla. Because the summers here get very hot the sugar levels in the grapes raises. The higher the sugar levels, the higher the alcohol content of the finished wine. In the past the wines produced here were strong and heavy and were used by other regions for blending. But with the onset of cooperatives the growers are developing new ways of working and are now producing some very drinkable and attractive wines.
Grapes used for red wine are Monastrell, Granache (Garnacha), Tempranillo, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Shiraz (syrah).
Grapes used for white are Air�n and Macabeo.
Between 15th June-15th September, the Mar Menor
Ferry picks up from the pier in the centre of
town and visits other towns and the islands of
the Mar Menor, at which you can stop off and
enjoy a delicious lunch of freshly caught and
barbecued sardines.
