Mazarron The town of Mazarron has two centres. Mazarron itself, with its 35,000 inhabitants, and everything you would expect to find in a town of this size: a range of shops, a weekly market, a hospital, primary and secondary schools, banks etc. And then there is the coastal Puerto de Mazarron with its esplanade, marina, fishing port, restaurants, pavement cafes, sailing and diving schools, hotels and apartments. | | Unparalleled natural beauty The rich diversity of landscape and nature around Mazarrón makes living and playing here very pleasant. The coast and the hinterland offer a varied scenery with plenty of opportunities for rest, space, sports and culture. From the Mazarrón Country Club in 20 minutes you reach the nature reserve Sierra Espuña. The large differences in nature, also encourages sporting activities such as hiking through the beautiful nature reserves, horseback riding or take beautiful cycling routes in the mountains. | | | Outings The location of the Mazarron Country Club means it has easy access to all kinds of outings further afield. Granada is two hours' drive. You will discover that one day is not enough to view the world-famous Alhambra, and from here it is just 30 minutes to the summer ski resort in the Sierra Nevada, where you can ski well into the Spring and sometimes into the Summer. The provincial capital of Murcia is also close: a city of great beauty and culture, just 45 minutes away, like Cartagena (the oldest port in Europe). And last but not least, you need to drive no more than 10 minutes to take you to various bays along the coast, for example the beach at Bolnuevo. | | Golf Keen golf-players can drive to the 54-hole golf link at Manga del Mar Menor in just 30 minutes. But there are another 14 links in the immediate vicinity, each with its own distinct flavour, from exclusive to no-nonsense. Even a spoilt golfer will have everything his heart desires with such an enormous number of links to choose from. The large number of links combined with the mild climate means that this area is a true paradise for golf-lovers. | | | Water sports and skiing The Costa Calida offers a wide range of water sports, including diving, sport fishing, wind surfing, water skiing and sailing. There are a great variety of marinas along the coast, from simple fishing ports to a number of large international yacht harbours with every imaginable type of facility. The winter ski slopes of the Sierra Nevada are just two hours' drive from Mazarron. With its excellent technical facilities and infrastructure, good hotels and entertainment, this area has everything to attract every type of skier. | | Culture Spain is unimaginable without festivals, and each region has its own. The Costa Calida is no exception: carnival, religious festivals, fairs and pilgrimages, village feasts and folklore. There is also a wealth of festivals, concerts, and a tradition of local handiwork, art and fashion. | | | | Culinary delights Spain is famous for its culinary excellence. The gastronomy of southern Spain and in particular the province of Murcia, is a fusion of the various cultures that have settled there, leaving their mark on the culinary heritage. As you would expect in such surroundings, the area boasts local and plain cuisine, winter dishes and shepherd's fare, and along the coast, of course, Mediterranean food. This extremely popular cuisine includes tapas, deep-fried fish and roast meat. Wine is a fundamental part of this regional cuisine. Spain has become one of the largest wine-producing countries in Europe. Eating out is a special occasion, and yet, compared with other countries, has remained easily affordable. | | Access to the Mazarron Country Club Mazarron Country Club is exceptionally easy to reach.
