"Santiago de la Ribera (Region of Murcia) "

Santiago de la Ribera

Murcia

The main attraction of this beautiful destination is the Mar Menor, with its calm, shallow waters and pleasant beaches.

Santiago de la Ribera is on the Mar Menor, on the coast of Murcia. This old fishing village has 4 kilometres of beach, with fine, golden sand. Its Mediterranean waters are ideal for enjoying the sun, sea and water sports all year round. It has an attractive, palm-lined promenade that runs the length of the beach.

It is well worth sampling the local gastronomy, featuring delicious fish and shellfish, and outstanding dishes such as salt-roast sea bream and king prawns. There are two particular summer events which should not be missed: the fiesta of the Virgen del Carmen, patron saint of sailors, on 16 July, and the San Javier International Jazz Festival, in the third week of the same month.
