The beach at Mar Menor offers a unique and memorable experience. With its shallow waters, you can easily wade in the sea and the water will never reach above your knees. The beach is also full of therapeutic mud which can be spread over your body and left to dry. However, there is an excess of algae, so you must be careful to avoid it. The water is also incredibly hot due to the shallow depth and high temperatures. The beach is also incredibly beautiful, with stunning views of the sunset, and it is easily accessible. People usually visit late in the day, so until around 12 o'clock there is plenty of room to spread out a towel.

A secluded shoreline on the shores of the Mar Menor. An idyllic spot to take in the majestic sunsets.
