Further details
Although La Torre caters for every need there is a lot to experience and discover in the area. Cartagena is about a 30 min drive. As the name suggests Cartagena was first established as a trading port by the Carthaginians and since then this historic city has always been an important strategic port for the Romans, the Moors and now the Spanish Navy. The City boasts Roman ruins and historic fortifications.
If you like sitting at a table with good Spanish tapas and a glass of wine, watching the locals promenade in the their finest then Cartagena is the place for you. For eating alfresco by the beach try Los Alcazares, there a wide variety of restaurants with both local and more international menus and with a range of prices.
There are shopping centres in Murcia, Dos Mares and Cartagena. For theme park enthusiasts ask for details of the zoo and water park in Murcia. The Alhambra Palace can be done in a day, it’s a bit of hack (2.5 to 3 hrs) so sharing the driving is advisable. You must get your tickets before you go as they are often sold out on the day. A good drive out is to the hills south Cartagena. If in season you can stop and pick figs from the trees by the roadside and then drop down to the cost for spot of lunch.
