Why People Choose Guardamar del Segura

Life in Guardamar revolves around the outdoors. Morning walks through the pine forests, swimming in waters that feel cleaner than anywhere on the coast, cycling along the river paths, watching flamingos at the nearby salt lakes. This is a town for those who value nature as much as sunshine.

The town itself is authentic Spanish—weekly markets, traditional tapas bars, festivals that have run for generations. The international community is present but smaller than Orihuela Costa, meaning more genuine integration with Spanish life. English is spoken in tourist areas but Spanish helps here more than elsewhere.
