The Best Places to Visit in La Manga
La Manga de Mar Menor
- From Cabo de Palos to the Punto del Mojon, La Manga is about 25 km long and has a width that ranges from 200 metres to about 1 km.
- Initially, an open bay, this enormous lake of slack water was eventually formed by volcanic reefs holding back the sands over time.
- The entire area was kept pristine until it was discovered as a tourist destination in the 1960s. This discovery completely altered the appearance of this small sandy spit.
- These days, La Manga has become a well-liked resort with many hotels and apartments, bars, clubs, restaurants, diving schools, shops, marinas, and other amenities guaranteeing a perfect beach holiday.
- La Manga resort comes to life from Easter until the end of the summer season in late September. The resort has hotels, marinas, restaurants, small shops, boutiques, souvenirs, and supermarkets.
- Try the Sunday market (Mercadillo de Cabo), held every Sunday, if you enjoy looking for deals.
- For very affordable prices, you can find a wide variety of interesting local goods here, including fruits, food, clothing, accessories, souvenirs, and more.
Cabo De Palos
- Visitors to the region frequently pass by the charming town of Cabo de Palos, situated at the western end of the Mar Menor.
- There is a quaint old quarter, a lighthouse, a marina, and small shops and bars. Cabo de Palos, a sizable village built around a sizable rocky outcrop that gives the area a charming atmosphere, is just 15 minutes drive from La Manga Golf Resort.
- Around 100 fishing and recreational boats are built in the marina, with a good selection of bars and restaurants.
- A Sunday market is worth going to if you need to stock up on fresh produce.
La Manga Club
- The La Manga Club, which is only a 10-minute drive from the main resort, deserves special mention.
- With three championship golf courses, tennis courts, and several full-size football pitches used by many top European football clubs as a winter training base, the 1,400-acre La Manga Club is now one of Europe's top golfing and sporting destinations.
- The resort is a well-liked golf holiday spot for golfers of all skill levels and has won numerous golf awards as Spain's best golf resort, in addition to serving as the site of the PGA Championships and the Spanish Open.

Veneciola
- Veneciola is a strange region north of La Manga, where the motorway ends.
- Here, there is a system of canals with a sizable islet in the middle that, along with the nearby buildings, reminds one of Venice (hence the name of the area).
- Its tranquil beaches make it the ideal location for a peaceful swim.
- The ancient structures of "La Encaizada," the old windmill that contrasts with the rest of the setting and is a part of this region's history, and a small semi-circular Venetian bridge are also present.
La Encañizada
- We discover this natural area after passing the Venetian bridge north of La Manga.
- The Mar Menor and the Mediterranean can exchange water through this area, which is a vast (up to 900 metres wide) natural inlet.
- The area's dunes are home to various bird species, which visitors can observe.
- This region got its name from the practice of "encaizada" fishing that originated in Arabia.
- Visitors can still see the structures that were once used to collect fish today.

La Manga Culture and Traditions
- Before the 16th century, the Mar Menor was a combination of two islands. As the islands began to merge, they created 21 km of land to the north and south, closing the Mar Menor and transforming it into what it is today—a sizable salty lake cut off from the Mediterranean. The history of the Mar Menor can be traced back only about four centuries.
- The water currents and sediments of the sea in the waterways where the Mediterranean Sea and Mar Menor meet are daily forming and reshaping this area, whether by the hand of nature until the 20th century or from the hand of Man after that century.
- La Manga changes daily in both shape and form. It belonged to the state until 1863 when it was auctioned off to the general public.
- Urbanizations, apartment buildings, chalets, discos, bars, and everything else have all been constructed in just the last 50 or 60 years, making La Manga a well-liked tourist destination.
- La Manga, which has 40 km of beaches today, is one of the few locations where you can take a dip in both the Mediterranean and the Mar Menor Seas simultaneously.
- Since the 1960s, many cities have expanded significantly, including Cabo de Palos (previously a small fishing village), San Javier, Los Alcazares, Cartagena, and San Pedro de Pinatar.
