Immediately recognisable by its
famous lighthouse, Cabo de Palos is situated at the mainland end of the La
Manga strip around a quaint harbour. It has
plenty of bars and seafood restaurants and a great view of La Manga. On
Sundays there is a market, where you can find plenty of fresh local produce
and other bargains.
For diving enthusiasts, the Hormigas Islands near
Cabo de Palos have been declared a Marine Reserve due to their exceptional
beauty and the conservation of the sea floor, but they are also acknowledged
by scuba divers as being one of Spain’s premier dive sites, due to the large
number of unfortunate ships that have come to grief in the rocky waters
around the area. |
