Murcia is located on the South Eastern coast of Spain, pretty much in the middle of Valencia to the North and Malaga to the South. Set back slightly from the actual coast - Murcia is situated on a low lying plain known as the Orchard of Murcia.

This region is well known all over the world as a popular holiday destination of choice especially among Europeans and the UK. A Mediterranean climate with exceptional weather and beautiful beaches attracts thousands of people to this area every year.  Murcia like many cities located in this area support a large expatriate community who enjoy relatively lower costs of living, relaxing in the sun and of course playing golf on some of the worlds most exclusive courses.

Murcia receives around 300 days of sunshine a year, summer months here are hot, and temperatures in this region over the summer can often exceed 40 degrees Celsius. Sea breezes would reduce the temperature but the closest coastline is roughly 50 kilometers away. This area has also increased in popularity with the introduction of a number of low cost airlines and flights coming in from all destinations of Europe and the UK, the airport of Murcia is located about 40 kilometers from the city centre and serves other popular surrounding destinations like Torrevieja and La Manga.  

Interestingly enough, this area has not grown as quickly as some of its surrounding areas, however the introduction of a number of exclusive property developments around Mar Menor have attracted the attention of property developers who have already achieved huge success in developing existing and surrounding areas of the Costa Del Sol.
