What to visit in La Manga del Mar Menor


Don't you know what to visit in La Manga del Mar Menor? We recommend that you do not miss Cabo de Palos, a fishing village that gives its name to the nature reserve that you can visit. The church of Santa María del Mar and the lighthouse are two key points to see the Mediterranean like never before and go back in time for a few hours.

In Pudrimel you should visit its old mill. In this case, he was grinding salt and not wheat. Its gear is intact and it is always interesting to appreciate its internal design and functionality. Something similar happens with the Encañizadas de San Javier, which were installed to stop the impulse of the sea and prevent the entry of fish. In Calblanque, an impressive natural park, you will be able to see native birds and fauna. Do not forget to bathe in one of the most impressive beaches in the entire region.

If you like museums, in San Pedro del Pinatar you have the fishermen's museum, founded in 1980. Without a doubt, it is a faithful reflection of how these workers have adapted to the evolution of fishing. What do you think of the offer? Surely you have loved it, because there is still much more that you can experience firsthand.
