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.

Park
There are now two water parks within easy reach of the apartment - Aquapolis Fun Park near Torrevieja is a 20 minute drive away, which is open from 15th June to 15th September, and Aqua Natura on the outskirts of Murcia is about 40 minutes away.

Menor Ferry
