About La Manga del Mar Menor
La Manga del Mar Menor is a distinctive 22km strip of land separating the Mediterranean Sea from the Mar Menor lagoon, located in southeastern Murcia.

The region benefits from year-round Mediterranean climate with over 300 days of sunshine annually and mild winters. La Manga has developed as a major tourist and residential hub, attracting international visitors and property buyers seeking reliable weather, affordable accommodation, and water-based recreation. The area's infrastructure continues to expand, with improved road connections to Murcia city and Alicante airport. The Mar Menor itself is a protected natural area, adding environmental value and ensuring the landscape remains unspoiled.
