DISCOVER THE UNIQUE BEAUTY AND WELLBEING OF THE COSTA BLANCA’S SALT LAKES

Few places in Spain can rival the natural charm and health‑boosting lifestyle of the salt lakes of Torrevieja and La Mata. These iconic pink and turquoise lagoons, set against the bright Mediterranean sky, create one of the most spectacular landscapes on the Costa Blanca. For residents of nearby areas such as Torrevieja, La Mata, Los Balcones, San Miguel de Salinas, Los Montesinos and Ciudad Quesada, this extraordinary scenery is part of everyday life.

A Microclimate for Better Health

The salt lakes play a key role in creating a unique microclimate that’s widely regarded as one of the healthiest in Europe. The high salt concentration and surrounding natural parkland purify the air, making it particularly beneficial for people with respiratory conditions, arthritis and certain skin issues. Doctors have long recommended the area for its therapeutic properties, and many residents notice improved wellbeing after just a short time living here.

Nature on Your Doorstep

Life by the salt lakes means waking up to glorious sunrises and breathtaking sunsets reflected across pink‑tinged waters. The surrounding Natural Park of the Lagunas de la Mata y Torrevieja is a protected area, offering kilometres of walking and cycling trails where flamingos, herons and other migratory birds thrive. Whether you prefer a peaceful morning walk or an energetic cycle ride, the natural beauty of the park is always within reach.

Perfectly Placed for Beach and Town Life

Despite the tranquillity of the salt lakes, you’re never far from modern comforts. The award‑winning Blue Flag beaches of Torrevieja are just a minutes from the shores of the salt lagoons, offering golden sands, calm waters and a wealth of watersports. The lively town centre of Torrevieja, with its marina, restaurants and shopping is a bustling hub. The renowned Zenia Boulevard shopping centre is around 15 minutes by car.

Living near the salt lakes is about more than health – it’s a complete lifestyle. Imagine relaxing by your private pool after a morning hike, enjoying fresh seafood in a beachside restaurant, or unwinding on your terrace as the skies turn shades of rose and gold. The area combines Mediterranean living with everyday convenience, making it ideal for permanent living, retirement, or as a holiday home.
