Six beaches along the Los Alcázares shore
The beaches face the lagoon rather than the open sea, which is why the water is shallow and almost still.
Los Alcázares · Murcia · Costa Cálida
The Los Alcázares coast has several beaches along one continuous shoreline. None of them faces the open sea: they face the Mar Menor, so the water is shallow, almost wave-free, and shelves very gradually.
01
How to choose
For company, facilities and a promenade behind you, stay around Los Narejos. For quiet, walk further along the shore. With small children, look for the most sheltered spots, where the water barely moves.
02
What to bring
Little that is special: shade, water and something to sit on. The shallow water makes swimming easy, but the sun is strong in the middle of the day. In the afternoon the breeze often arrives, welcome in August and cool in May.
On the ground
Playa de Los Narejos
The long, wide beach at the northern end of the Los Alcázares shore, backed by the Narejos district with its bars and shops. Plenty of room even in August, and a very gradual entry into the water.
Playa de Las Salinas
Named after the salt workings that once shaped this coast. Quieter than Narejos and a favourite with local residents for an early swim before the day gets going.
Playa de Las Palmeras
A relaxed family beach with a gentle shelf into the water and the promenade directly behind it, which makes it easy to combine a swim with a walk.
Playa del Espejo
Small and sheltered, with water that stays exceptionally still — the name means mirror. The calmest option for small children and for anyone learning to paddleboard.
Playa de Manzanares
More open and breezy, with a wider view across the lagoon. When the afternoon breeze builds, this is where the windsurfers and kitesurfers head.
Playa de La Concha
A sheltered curve of sand close to the town centre, handy for a short swim between other plans rather than a full day on the beach.
