Costa Calida, Spain is popularly identified as the warm coast of Spain, with scuba-diving as a top sport. One place in particular is Cabo de Palos located in the region of Murcia. The rocky coastline has warm seas which make for one of Europe’s best diving courses. What’s more, it is one of the five Special Protected Zones of Importance in the Mediterranean. Choosing this resort corner can guarantee perennial warm water, abundant aquatic life and of course, great visibility. And since we all know Spain as the main destination of British tourists, it just makes the perfect solution to a lengthy British winter on top of 320 days sunshine with an average temperature at 18c.

The rocky ocean floor of Murcia and effervescent sea beds are as captivating and colorful as any. The attractive schools of fish and turtles are more to count. However, Murcia’s wide seas are more than just playground of experience. The association of Spain’s watersports or more locally, Estacion Nautica Mar Menor has made its business to coax people to engage in watersports, from jet skiing to scuba diving and canoeing to sailing. This local watersports association aids holidaymakers organize everything from restaurants to hotels, beauty treats to spas and sorts of activities that guarantee the perfect trip

On the other hand, another interesting catch in this part of Costa Calida is the thinnest slice of land from the tranquil place of Mar Menor coastal lagoon. It literally means “small sea” of only 170-square kilometer stretch of warm low water. It is also the largest saltwater mere in Europe, surrounded by salt flats, marsh lands and sand dunes making it an ideal outdoor swimming pool. This is also the region’s centre for tourist development with beaches reaching 800 meters wide on each side. In general, it definitely has every reason to make it a central point for watersport lovers and sun-worshippers alike.
