Tradition and beauty away from the crowds of the Costa Cálida and the big cities over the festive season If all you want for Christmas this year is to get away from the throngs of people in the shops and town centres of Murcia, bear in mind that the old saying that true beauty lies on the inside can also be applied to our Region, and that the coastline does not have exclusive rights to the most appealing and tranquil festive landscapes!

29 JUL - 31 DIC
Northern Murcia is dotted with heavenly locations in water ranging from jacuzzi temperature to icy cold! We are now in the middle of the ¿dog days¿ of summer, the month from mid-July to mid-August when the heat is relentless, the beaches are more crowded than at any other time of year and for some people there seems to be no escaping the hassle of finding a parking space before searching for a quiet spot on the sand alongside the Mediterranean or the Mar Menor. But if you want a really refreshing dip, it¿s worth making the effort..

Molina de Segura, surrounded by mountains, is located on the left bank of the Segura River. This destination will surprise you not only by its industrial shapes and its extraordinary landscapes but also by all the fascinating adventures on offer.
Bullas has been traditionally considered as the entrance to the North West of Murcia. Life in this village revolves around wine, making possible a "perfect match" between culture and vine, history and a green and mountainous nature
Reading the menu in a Murcia bar or restaurant can be, to say the least, perplexing for a foreigner. You could submit the waiter to an intensive questioning, play eenie meenie miney moe or have a look at our glossary, but really don't worry! Whatever you choose, it's sure to be the right decision.
In the far northwest of the Region of Murcia lies Moratalla, the site of the ancient legacy of the Order of Santiago knights. The silhouette of its castle stands out in a landscape of valleys and its identity has remained almost intact for centuries. Cave paintings and the remains of Iberian, Roman and Medieval settlements add to the beauty of the woods and hills of one of the noblest lands in the Region.
Cieza is the entrance to the North of the Region of Murcia. Full of crossroads, it keeps a rich historical legacy inherited from different cultures that have occupied its territory since the antiquity. Beautiful landscapes, festivities, cave paintings, routes, museums, gastronomy and adventure turn Cieza into a destination for all ages.
In the Northeast is al-Bayada, which means "the white town" in Arabic. Abanilla is known as the Murcian Palestine because of its desert landscapes, palm trees oasis and Muslim origin.
Come and visit the most awesome natural spots in the region. Beaches, mountains, canyons, valleys... Here, we'll show you the best places to escape to, where to breathe clean air and to enjoy the amazing spectacles of nature.
Frankly, we just love hustle and bustle. Both the great climate and tradition lead Murcian people to meet up in good company in order to make the most of the good weather. One example of these meeting places are the bars where you can enjoy nearly an infinite variety of tapas, whether it be inside at the counter or outside on the sun terraces. Just don't forget to always have your napkin to hand and, if you're still hungry, be ready to shout out 'Camarero, otra ronda!' ('Waiter, another round please!')
