Leisure in Murcia & Costa Calida

In Murcia and on the Costa Calidá you find that you are never more than a short drive away from a whole host of leisure activities.  Every day you can take part in a different activity, and of course the sunny mild climate means you can really spend your leisure time to the full.

Golf

Murcia and the Costa Calidá is destined to become the new Costa del Golf, with over 30 new golf courses currently in the planning or construction stage.  Already the area is famous for La Manga Club, a tourist resort of superior design which houses 3 World Championship courses.  The area is also fortunate enough to have been chosen as the location for the Jack Nicklaus Golf trail.  This is made up of six top quality golf courses which are being constructed as part of the Polaris World Resort developments.  Other courses, both public and private are being developed ensuring a variety of courses of different designs and skill levels. 

Water Sports

With the Mar Menor on your door step there is really no excuse not to try out a water sport activity when you visit the Murcia region.  Water activity centres offer you the opportunity to sail, windsurf, jet-ski, kite-surf, kayak, canoe, snorkel and scuba dive.  The area has been recognised as one of the safest for beginners learning any of these activities, while for the pro, various different championships are held here annually. 

For those looking for a more relaxing pursuit, both sea and fresh water fishing are available.  The Mar Menor and Mediterranean offer great scope for sea fishing, while the lakes of Murcia provide an inland retreat where you will find fresh water fish.

Outdoor Pursuits

Lovers of land & air activities are not left out in Murcia and the Costa Calidá.  Horse riding, quad biking, cycling, abseiling, rock climbing, caving, orienteering, hiking, archery, hot air ballooning, gliding and microlite flying are all available, offering you the chance to explore the fantastic Murcian landscape.
