According to Volcano Discovery website, that was a 4.2 mag earthquake with the epicentre NW of Albatera which is basically above bridge 22 of the Via Pista to the left of the Frailles road. I'm bridge 21 and felt it! The earth seemed to rise up, shudder from left to right, then subside again and I'm sure I felt a couple of aftershocks.

It made the whisky in my glass slosh around, but fortunately didn't spill any.

I prefer the Spanish website for checking earthquakes:
