Costa Calida

Costa Calida Information

The Costa Calida region of Spain extends for 250 km along the Murcian coastline between Almeria and Alicante. This region is blessed with more than 315 days of sunshine a year and the temperature averages 17° C. The region actually begins with the fishing village of El Mojon, where the beach is absolutely superb. Just a short distance from the beach, you will find the Las Salinas y Arenales de San Pedro del Pintar Regional Park. This is one of the most important wetlands in the Murcia region. Here you can see the pink flamingos that come to rest here each year.

According to the World Health Organization, Costa Calida is one of the healthiest places in the world to live. It has the nickname of the "warm coast" and thousands of tourists from the UK come here on a regular basis to get a respite from the cold northern winters. Most of them have purchased investment property in this region because of the low cost of the houses, the low cost of living and the high standards of living that they can enjoy.

When you have your own home in Costa Calida, you can bathe in the therapeutic waters of Mar Menor - the world's largest pool. This shallow lagoon measures 170 square km and is reported to be one of the best places in the world to learn many different water sports. The sandy beach that separates this area from the Mediterranean is one of the premier tourist destinations in the world. Just a short walk will take you to the charming village of Cabo de Palos with its two beaches and a lighthouse dating back to the 19th century.

This area is steeped in history as the first Moorish stronghold in Spain. You don't have to rush from one historic site to another because with your own apartment or villa here you can take all the time you need. Come back each day to visit the sites if you wish. Buying investment property in Costa Calida is just as simple as it is in the UK.

There are a number of developments for sale either in or close to Mar Menor, but there are also other luxurious locations that you can consider. Puerto de Mazarron and Aguilas have fabulous beaches and bars and restaurants galore. Those who love the outdoors and taking long leisurely walks may prefer the Parque National de Espuna region of the Murcian Coast. Wherever your interests lie, you will find an activity to match in Costa Calida and a property close by.

Imagine owning an apartment just 45 minutes away from the Alicante International Airport. Whenever you wish to return to the UK, the flight will only take you about 3 hours, so you are never far away from home.

Browse the selection of properties available and you will see that for a little more than Ł100 ,000 you can be the proud owner of an apartment with a stunning view located quite close to a golf course and shopping.
