That place has it all! From plenty of sand, shallow water, bars and restaurants, sailing and surfing schools, rent a paddleboard, restrooms, a fantastic boulevard and easy accessible parking almost on the beach with wheelchair access all the way to the sea, there's something here for everyone. Even the LA council has made adjustments for disabled folks. What's more, the council highly prioritizes rebuilding the beach before the tourist season, so even if you catch LA on a not so good day, you can still enjoy a great beach experience! Why not come and visit?

Mar Menor may have a bad reputation, but I'm here to tell you that it's one of the best beaches around. Every year I spend my summer there and it's absolutely wonderful, especially when you're travelling with kids. I highly recommend you take a trip to Mar Menor and see it for yourself - you won't be disappointed!
