Spend a Relaxing Day on Mar Menor


Murcia, Spain offers Palatinum Golf, Spa, and Sport Resort guests some of the most beautiful beaches around, nearly all of which are located on Mar Menor. Mar Menor is Europe’s biggest natural salt-water lagoon, which is separated from the Mediterranean Sea by only a narrow strip of land known as La Manga (the strip).

During the summer months, Mar Menor’s temperatures rise due to the shallow water and warm atmosphere, making this lagoon a hot spot for water lovers. The average depth of Mar Menor is about 13 feet which makes it possible to venture out several hundred meters before the water has any real depth. The shallowness of this lagoon makes it the perfect location for all kinds of water sports such as windsurfing, sailing, waterskiing, and jet skiing.

The salinity of Mar Menor provides a great deal of buoyancy, making it one of the safest places to swim in the world. The combination of this buoyancy and the shallowness of the lagoon make it a natural water park for people of all ages.

All of the beaches which surround Mar Menor offer guests watersport rental equipment and classes, as well as, refreshment /food stands and a variety of restaurants, making Mar Menor a definite hot spot for vacationers.
