Things to do whilst here with friends

Could it be Plaza Nueva you are thinking of in Torre de La Horadada - it opened last year and mainly consists of restaurants?  

We always enjoy taking visitors to Lo Pagan where people go to cover themselves in mud from the bottom of the salt lakes as it is supposed to have healing properties!  We’ve never put the mud on but it’s interesting watching others doing it.  Plus it’s a nice place to walk and sit and have a coffee.

Thank you so much, yes I think that is the place. If I drive to Torre de la Horadada, will Plaza Nueva be easy to find? Will the restaurants be open this time of year do you know?

I read about Lo Pagan, that sounds like a nice day out too.

Thank you so much for replying. 

Hi

Me and my friends visited a Moroccan garden/house last night. Was lovely, I would recommend going as the sun is setting, it’s about 30 mins ish from you. If you’ve got Instagram you could look at my page for details. Just_gran_alacant.

Fantastic, thank you. I will look at your page now.

If you take the main route into Torre from the N332, the plaza is on the right hand side, before you get to the church and the square.

For Lo Pagan, if you turn right onto the N332 from Pilar de La Horadada and turn left at the island where the huge Spanish flag is flying and where Lidl is, follow that road as far as you can to the sea, find somewhere to park and walk along the spit where the windmill is, that is where people put the mud on.  It’s a great walk or cycle ride along the spit.

Also check out the ‘Visit Pilar de La Horadada’ website and Facebook page for more ideas!

This is perfect, thanks so much. 

you will not struggle for places to eat and drink.

The bars in pinar have plenty of entertainment on all year round.

Cartagena is worth a day out, being full of museums, shops and places to eat and is about a 3/4 of an hour away.

La zenia boulevard  and dosmares shopping centers are both close.

pilar d la horadada has plenty to see and do.

beaches everywhere.

Thank you so much, this is very helpful. I'm looking forward to my break.
