Mar Menor

Mar Menor and the Mediterranean Sea offer visitors some of the most beautiful beaches around. 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).

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. There are also refreshment & food stands, as well as a variety of restaurants, making Mar Menor a definite hot spot for vacationers.
