Ribera Beach is located in an ideal place just a stone's throw away from the best beach on the Mar de Cristal ( meaning "Crystal Sea" ) of the Mar Menor.
This secluded residential complex is renowned for its crystal clear waters that are a paradise for swimmers and a heaven for all types of water sports fans.
Mar de Cristal fully caters for all your needs, offers excellent travel links with direct access to the motorway and proximity to Murcia and Alicante airports.
Just behind the residential area, you can enjoy the Calblanque natural park, with kilometres of unspoiled beaches on the Mediterrean.
Alternatively, the nearby top class La Manga Golf Club offers you a lively international atmosphere ( casinos, shops, restaurants, 3 championship golf courses, etc ).
There is also a local "English Shop" for all those little "tastes from home" you may miss.
The nearby villages of Cabo de Palos, Algar , Los Belones or La unio n add to the range of cultural offer with additional leisure and shopping facilities. There are a number of supermarkets/indoor shopping centres and most days there are also open air local markets.
Why did we choose this area ?
We have a young family, and this area allows for an ideal family holiday. There is a shared swimming pool, with an attached smaller swimming pool for young children. The beach is only 5 minutes walk, and the area is very safe and "child friendly".
The Mar Menor is a lagoon with sea temperatures several degrees warmer than the Mediterranean and shallow safe waters ideal for children.
All shops/restauants/play areas are all within walking distance and hence a car is not essential, but is desirable to discover the local area further afield. The area is well served by public transport.
There is so much history and culture in the area ( Roman city of Cartagena only 15 minutes away) plus light houses, the local working villages, the salt lakes and of course the natural reserve to contrast the beach. The area is surrounded by two seas Mar Manor and the Mediterranean.
Also for the Golf enthusiast there are a number of first class world courses available nearby,
You will not see all on your first visit but will come back again and again to discover, experience and fall in love with all this area has to offer.
