Mud Baths @ Lo Pagon
The mud baths are free to use, which is great news if you have a large family to keep occupied. Everyone can try the mud baths, but only the truly hardy indulge during the winter months. Simply walk down the steps, cover yourself with the therapeutic mud, said to be good for all types of skin complaints, aches and pain, dry off in the sun, then re-enter the water to wash it all off!
The salt marshes and mud baths form a fantastic circular 12 kilometre cycling or walking route.
Los Alcazares (pronounced 'los-alcatha-res') is situated in the Murcia region of south-eastern Spain, also known as the Costa Calida. Los Alcazares sits on the coast of the Mar Menor.
Mar Menor The largest natural swimming pool in Europe.
The town sits on the western shore of the Mar Menor, a saltwater lagoon separated from the Mediterranean Sea by a 22 kilometre long strip of land called La Manga.
The area enjoys an average of 320 days of sunshine each year. Bars, cafes and restaurants provide drinks, tapas, meals and entertainment, and the warm water of the Mar Menor helps make the town a paradise for bathers and watersports enthusiasts.
The mineral-rich water of the Mar Menor is revered for its health-giving properties and the town still has thermal baths, which have existed since Roman times.
The fertile countryside (la huerta)Â inland supplies the local markets with fresh produce which is also exported to northern Europe, especially during the winter when local farmers take advantage of the comparatively warm weather.
