Buying Property on the Costa Calida

Where to buy property on the Costa Calida

This coast is a golf property hotspot and generally aims itself at a discerning, upmarket property buyer. Located in Murcia, between the Costa Blanca and Costa Almeria, the ‘Warm Coast’ enjoys an average of 315 sunshine days per year. This year-round climate and a diverse and largely unspoilt landscape make the area an appealing area to visit and to live.

The Costa Calida is perhaps best known for La Manga and its golf developments, on the Mar Menor lagoon. A number of high-quality courses from the likes of Jack Nicklaus go on to make the region a golfer’s paradise. There are many other sports facilities here too, tennis, scuba diving and sailing to name but three. Property buyers with a love of outdoor life will be impressed with this part of Spain.

Down the coast, the port of Aguilas is often cited as a property hotspot, combining traditional charm with an increasing number of new developments. Puerto de Mazarron has also started to carve out a reputation as an excellent development area, building on its success over many years as a favourite resort for the Spanish.

Inland there are more traditional properties in the mountains that form a backdrop to the coastal resorts, and interesting towns such as the Roman frontier town of Lorca. With several major infrastructure projects in place to improve accessibility to and amenities in the region, the Costa Calida is an attractive place to invest ahead of the demand from property buyers that these improvements will bring.
