La Manga Spain -

Just an hour’s drive south from Torrevieja, away from the high-rise buildings and tailbacks and from the summer’s traffic, the true splendours of the area are seen in the form of vast open countryside. Farmers attending to their crops and herds of cattle being rounded up after a day of grazing. It is worth a trip to La Manga if not just for the drive, and the N-332 goes through the picturesque villages of San Pedro del Pinatar and San Javier, both worthy of a closer look.

Upon reaching La Manga it is back to the joys of beach-life. La Manga’s strip is home to thousands of apartments and restaurants and enjoys some spectacular long stretches of golden coastline and yet it is surprisingly very quiet out of the main summer season, perfect for those now desperately awaiting the end of August and the return of the tourists back home, whether it be Madrid or Manchester!

On one side is the Mar Menor, or small sea. It is an inland lagoon created by the 20 mile stretch of land that is La Manga. The beaches here are lagoon beaches, extremely safe with shallow, warm waters. From there stand with your back to the sea and in some places you can see across to the Mar Menor, the big sea or the Mediterranean as we know it. Some of the beaches are within a National Park and are of exceptional beauty, being wild, unspoilt and full of secret coves and long golden sands.

Driving along the strip over the causeway to the very tip of Punta del Pudrider it is reminiscent of the Florida Keys, surrounded by turquoise waters, secluded coves and the odd beach bar.

The Tomas Maestre Marina is one of the biggest in Spain, providing berths for around 2000 leisure boats of all shapes and sizes, making it an ideal playground for the rich and famous.

If sunning yourself by day is too relaxing there is the usual wide range of watersports and the evening entertainment is just as impressive. The beach life spills over into the evening, small colonial style buildings house a number of boutiques and eateries for all tastes and budgets with the emphasis on good food, good drink and, more importantly, good company.

But of course no trip to La Manga would be complete without a trip to the infamous Hyatt Regency. The star-studded La Manga Club is a 1400 acre sporting paradise that has been visited by sporting stars of today and tomorrow.

There are miles of stunning trails to walk or ride and it is easy to get lost in the grounds passing by three of the finest golf courses in Europe, spa centre, tennis courts, casino and restaurants and bars.

It may be just a few miles away from the humble Spanish villages that are scattered along the N-332 but it seems like a world away.
