Golfing:
We are well positioned for golfing breaks, as we are within a 20 min drive of five excellent local courses.
You will need to book in advance usually by email from the UK. The courses are: La Finca, Las Ramblas, Campoamor, La Marquesa and Villa Martin, its also possible to play La Manga but this is about 1 hour by car.
You might need proof of handicap at some courses, min 28 for men and 36 for women, but some will allow you to pay an insurance to play.(I have never been asked for proof as yet) Buggies and in some cases clubs can be hired.
Spring and Autumn are good times to play as the climate is ideal. Prices range from e45-e60/round plus approx e25 for a buggy.
Recreation:
The local beaches of Guardamar & La Mata are stunning blue flag standard with fine white sand and lots of beach sports available. Along the beach you will find cafes and bars and on the beach vendors selling everything from ice creams to fresh fruit, parking is free along this coast at nearly all the beaches, to the north the coastline tends to be rocky so keep south for sandy.
Within 10 min of our apartment is a fantastic aqua park well worth spending a day at also locally is a Safari park
Go karting, boat trips and Nature reserve, which is a must for bird watchers as many migratory birds stop off to feed. This is where the biggest flock of Flamingo I've ever seen are to be found, and there are observation towers to view them from.
Nightlife:
Evenings offer a wide choice, from sitting on the balcony with a glass of wine or a beer to strolling into the village and enjoying a variety of restaurants, tapas bars and cafes. There are a couple of bars and a very good restaurant (called New Ternasco)which is famous locally for roasted meat dishes appealing to tourists and locals alike,you will need to book for Sunday Lunch,approx 300 m away.A taxi ride away is the town of Torrevieja which has many restaurants and tapas, a casino, bars and clubs open until the small hours, but please be considerate of the neighbours if returning late.
