Mar Menor is Europe's largest and undoubtedly most impressive saltwater lagoon. It is situated on the Costa Blanca in Southeast Spain and is home to the world famous La Manga Resort.

The lagoon covers an area of 170 square kilometres yet is only 7m deep on average. This makes it an ideal venue for water sports. Wind surfing, water skiing, jet skiing and powerboating are just some of the activities that may be enjoyed on this vast inland lake.

There are three world-class golf courses, Europe's #1 tennis centre and a whole host of sports and leisure facilities on-site. Visitors are able to relax in tranquil surroundings, far from the hustle and bustle normally associated with the Costa Blanca. There is some spectacular scenery to enjoy too.

The Mar Menor however is not just about La Manga. The resorts of San Javier, Los Nietos and Cabo de Palos, located around the land ward side of the Mar Menor, are all places of tremendous splendour. Each has a unique atmosphere and its own section of beach on the shores of the Mar Menor.
