Travel Tips

I lived in "Puerto de Mazarron" Murcia for 18 months, lots of lovely beaches, cafes, bars etc, not a big club scene though as its quite small and very spanish. Plenty of properties to rent, just type in "Puerto de Mazarron" on computer and lots of stuff will come up..
Check it out on "Google Earth" there are quite a few photos on there. It`s about 45 mins drive from Murcia (San Javier) airport, car hire available.

Barcelona is beautiful, cosmopolitan (with excellent culture, food and shopping) and quite unlike the rest of Spain. About 45 minutes away by train there is beach town called Sitches (sp? - pronounced "see-chez") that is also quite enjoyable with huge, smooth, sandy beaches.
Maybe stay around Nerja (NAIR-KA)

You can fly into malaga & travel East for apx 45mins (taxi costs 拢30) The beaches are gorgeous, the small twn centre has a 'square' of bars which is really cool & is quite vibrant - however its mainly German & that gives a really nice layed back atmosphere & iv never seen any trouble there.

I bought an apartment in Nerja 5yrs ago & love both the summers & winters for its easy access & Spanish lifestyle with a jolly German atmos

If you want quiet stay well away from english dominaed areas like going West of Malaga - its horrible!!

There are the obvious Palma and Minorca (Marron) which are great... but my favorite Spain city is Malaga. Amazing city, friendly people, birthplace of Picasso.
Try Javea, Costa Blanca, between Alicante & Valencia airports.
It has a port area, which is full of local life, lovely cobbled beach, lots of bars, restaurants, hotels, shops etc.
The Arenal, with it's huge sandy beach is more popular with tourists. It has loads of the above mentioned attractions, plus market each evening along the front.
I love it there, and have been dozens of times. It remains uncommercialised, which is one of the attractions.
I recommend you Ibiza. It's great both for partying (although a bit crazy .. depends on your preferences ;) and for relaxing. The beaches are the best ones in Spain, in my opinion. Go to calas (creeks) they are marvelous! and you can party 24 hours... even at some beaches. You can also find all kind of shops and the old village is beautiful. Chill out places are great too. And you also have Caf茅 del Mar, famous for its sunsets and its music. It's amazing and you have a lot of fun!
