The coast of Murcia wends its way over 200km of sun-drenched Mediterranean beaches and bays. Its warm climate has earned it the name Costa Cálida and its affordable property and relaxed atmosphere has made it a popular option for international buyers, both for holiday homes and retirement. Join us on a tour of Spain’s south-eastern coast.
More than 7,000 people, all searching for an overseas home, flocked to the A Place in the Sun Live expo in Birmingham this month. Spain was by far the most popular destination, in particular the southern Costa Blanca.
Summer is over, so where did royals, celebrities and top sports people spend their holidays? Plenty of A-listers chose to relax on the classy Balearic island, Majorca, and some were so taken with its sun-drenched shores they purchased property here.
The beaches are long, the sand is golden and the waters are crystal clear. No we’re not describing the Costa Blanca, Brava or del Sol. We’re about to take you on a tour of the Costa de La Luz, which has beauty to rival any other costa, but with rather fewer other expatriates, in a more traditionally Spanish setting. Tourism isn’t king around here and it’s a welcome change.
If like most overseas property buyers you want a pool, access to a beach and sea views then you should head to one of the many resorts on Spain’s Costa del Sol – there’s something for everyone!
