Travelling Information

Murcia is located in the Southeast of Spain and it is surrounded by a fertile area near the Mediterranean Sea. Murcia enjoys a pleasant climate all year round, with a warm spring that makes it ideal for having a good time in the cafes and terraces at dusk. The gastronomy of Murcia is a privileged one within the Mediterranean coast, and it is very easy to eat well in this region. This is a city to enjoy where everybody feels at home.
