Mojacar is a port tracing its history back hundreds of years but has developed sensitively into a thriving holiday location. The old town is a maze of winding cobbled streets with a wide selection of shops, bars and cafes.

The Playa, with sandy beaches, stretches for more than five miles beneath the ancient village of Mojacar, extending as far as the eye can see in both directions. Surrounded by the sea on one side and the magnificent mountains of the Sierra Cabrera to the rear, Mojacar paints an enchanting picture captured many times by local and visiting artists alike.
