Mazarrón: hidden coves, calm beaches and landscapes that feel out of this world

With more than 35 kilometres of coastline, Mazarrón is one of those Mediterranean destinations where you can still find peaceful beaches, crystal-clear coves and authentic seaside charm without the crowds.

What you shouldn’t miss:

• Las Gredas de Bolnuevo
  One of the most surprising landscapes in the region. These huge rock formations sculpted by wind and water create an almost lunar scenery right next to the beach — and visiting them is completely free.

• Puerto de Mazarrón
  The lively heart of the area. Its wide seafront promenade is perfect for sunset walks, enjoying an ice cream or having tapas on a terrace overlooking the fishing boats and the Mediterranean.

• Beaches and coves for every type of traveller
  If you’re travelling with family, Playa de Bahía or Playa de la Reya are ideal thanks to their calm and shallow waters. Looking for something more natural? The coves heading towards Águilas, such as Percheles, offer a much wilder and more untouched setting.

• Mediterranean cuisine full of flavour
  Mazarrón is especially known for its rice dishes, fresh seafood and local produce. Near the port you’ll find restaurants serving specialties such as arroz a banda or grilled sardines with excellent quality and very reasonable prices.

Our recommendation:
Head up to the viewpoint overlooking Puerto de Mazarrón for one of the best panoramic views of the coastline and the perfect holiday photo spot.
