The town of Murcia, the capital, is open and dynamic, with excellent access to all other cities on Spain's east coast, and highly interesting commercial activity. Its climate and the good-natured character of its people make it a cosy city, a virtue reflected in the constantly busy streets and plazas of its old quarters, where residents and visitors chat, take walks, savour delicious "tapas", or embark on one of its many cultural routes.

Centuries of history and numerous civilizations provide the Murcia Region with a rich historical and cultural heritage. Over 30 museums, 22 castles, and the remains of fortresses spread across the entire landscape of Murcia, completing this region's appeal, a land full of history and a tremendously varied artistic heritage.

Furthermore, today the Murcia Region is experiencing enormous growth, with new, modern infrastructures, while also sustaining a meticulous respect for the environment. This respectful development endows Murcia with a special uniqueness, resulting from a mix between tradition and modernity, and it ranks it as one of the Regions in Spain with greater tourist interest, with an extensive offering of culture, leisure and services.

Murcia's coastline is rich and diverse, areas of rough water contrasting with gentle coves and quiet beaches. Dunes, salt flats, wetlands... many of them Nature Reserves. The Costa Calida offers two seas - Mar Menor and the Mediterranean - on one coastline. The Mar Menor was originally an open bay of some 65sq miles that is now virtually enclosed and provides an ideal bathing and water sports sea of no more than seven metres deep.

The diversity of the landscape, the privileged climate and the cultural and historical richness make Murcia the perfect region to holiday in and enjoy the outdoors, practice water sports in the Mar Menor, explore its mountains, go hiking, rural tourism... and, of course, play golf.

Known for its miles of sandy beaches, Alicante is a starting point for thousands of tourists every year. Famous for its excellent weather, the city invites you to take a trip along the coast or to the wonderful island of Tabarca. Along the Alicante harbour you find beautiful long alleys for nice relaxing walks, enjoying the palm trees and the mild climate.

With many historical buildings around the entire city, Alicante offers countless sightseeing attractions, from cathedrals to churches and of course a wonderful harbour area.

Additional to sightseeing, direct from the harbour area, a long wide sandy beach leads its way up to San Juan. Just drop your towel on the sand and enjoy a wonderful day in the sun.

During summer time, Alicante with its Airport, is a starting point for many Costa Blanca tourists, while during the winter months tourists and residents tend to live along the coast in places like Benidorm, Calpe and Denia.

Alicante has about 340 000 habitants (2005 numbers) and lies directly at the Mediterranean sea.

The Alicante weather in winter is around 16 ºC. However in the summer the average is around 32 ºC.

Cartagena is literally brimming with museums, amazing architecture and amazing archaeology such as the walled historic quarter, Medieval Castles, Roman Walls and Roads, the City Hall and The Old Cathedral.

The Cathedral Vieja (also known as The Old Cathedral or Cathedral Santa Maria) dates from the 1st century BC and is one of the most important in Spain; it is well worth a visit.

As well having an abundance of culture Cartagena is also naturally blessed with a coastline that is nothing short of spectacular. There are beautiful beaches, some of which are nature reserves.
