Cabo de Palos<br />

The Costa Cálida extends along 250 kilometers (155 miles)<br />

from the beach <strong>of</strong> Carolina in Águilas a few kilometers<br />

from the province <strong>of</strong> Almería, to the beach <strong>of</strong> El Mojón on<br />

the boundary with Alicante. This stretch <strong>of</strong> Murcian<br />

coastline, blessed with 315 days <strong>of</strong> sunshine a year <strong>and</strong> an<br />

average temperature <strong>of</strong> 17 degrees Centigrade (63 °F), is<br />

shared by two seas: the Mar Menor, the largest natural<br />

pool in the world <strong>and</strong> a paradise for all types <strong>of</strong> water<br />

sports, <strong>and</strong> the Mediterranean with its spacious beaches<br />

<strong>of</strong> fine s<strong>and</strong> <strong>and</strong> varied l<strong>and</strong>scapes.<br />

Without leaving this coast, it is possible to learn to sail,<br />

skin dive in one <strong>of</strong> the best areas in the country <strong>and</strong> explore<br />

a sunken ship, w<strong>and</strong>er through a lovely nature park, calm<br />

aches <strong>and</strong> pains with a soothing mud bath, or escape to an<br />

unspoiled cove to enjoy a tranquil afternoon swim.
