PILAR DE LA HORADADA

Pilar de la Horadada

Pilar de la Horadada is located 3km inland from the beach at El Mojon. The resort is approximately 25 minutes drive to the north of Murcia San Javier airport and approximately one hours drive to the south of Alicante airport.

Pilar de la Horadada is ideally located close to the safe sandy beaches of the Mar Menor.

The region is largely agricultural; surrounded by market gardens, orchards, citrus groves and pastoral farms.

Beaches


The town is close to a coastline of fine sand and clear water beaches, interspersed by attractive inlets, all offering a full range of services.

The beach at Mil Palmeras is ideal for sailing enthusiasts, linking up with the Rincón and Puerto inlets; the latter with a promenade that comes alive on hot summer nights.

Las Villas, the beach behind Torre Horadada marina, is the longest beach followed by a smaller beach at La Mojón, which reaches the border with Murcia.

Excursions


The river Seco is formed by a network of channels that receive water filtrating off the fields. This peculiar environment is worthy of an excursion, one where you can the fragrant scents of herbs such as rosemary and thyme.

The visitor trail begins at El Pinar de Campoverde, where you will find informative panels explaining the flora and fauna of the region, as well as facilities for barbecues. 


Another attractive tour is the water architecture route. A pleasant stroll discovering old water features such as cisterns and old wells.



Cultural attractions
There is a watchtower on the coast, typical of the many that line the Spanish Mediterranean coastline. A settlement developed around the tower, which became the summer residence for the inhabitants of Orihuela; Murcia and the Vega Baja del Segura are also both worthwhile day trips.

The Archaeological and Ethnological Museum museum has five sections, dedicated to the environment, to fossils, numismatics and ethnology. On display are the most typical flora of the municipality, a collection of metals, assault weaponry, pieces from Iberian textile mills and objects made from esparto and the typical "pilareña" dress.

Leisure & recreation
A full range of water sports is available on the coast here. The town has excellent sports facilities for athletics and football and horse riding facilities are available nearby.

Shopping
The centre of Pilar de la Horadada is a shopper’s paradise with many boutiques, pastry shops, banks and gaming salons lining the main Calle Mayor.

Cuisine


The "pilareña" gastronomy is similar to that of the rest of the region, where the presence of the sea puts its stamp on many local dishes.

Rice is a principal ingredient of the local cuisine, usually boiled in fish stock. The surrounding farms provide the fruits and vegetables of the local cuisine; excellent artichokes, peppers, beans and cauliflower’s, oranges, lemons, figs, peaches and plums, to name but a few.

"Arroz con leche" (rice pudding) is a favourite dessert, made with goat’s milk, lemon peel and cinnamon. Sweets such as "cordiales", "toñas", "mantecados" or "rollos de anis" and "milhojas" are also typical of the region, and very popular.

Eating out
After an exhausting morning shopping along the Calle Mayor, why not relax at one of the cafés in the Plaza Iglesia and watch the world go by, enjoying a few “tapas”. There are also many good “Mesones” offering the local cuisine to a very high standard.

International restaurants serve favourites from all over Europe and the rest of the world.

Climate
Pilar de la Horadada enjoys a typical Mediterranean climate, with cool sea breezes in summer and protection by surrounding mountains against the cold North winds in winter.

The area averages nearly 3,000 hours of sunshine each year and the average temperature easily exceeds 20 degrees.

In 1986 the World Health Organisation recommended the climate of the area as one of the most equitable in the world - neither too hot in the summer nor too cold in the winter. On average it can boast 325 sunny days each year making it an ideal all year round destination.

STRAIT OF GIBRALTAR

The Strait of Gibraltar (Arabic: مضيق جبل طارق‎‎, Spanish: Estrecho de Gibraltar) is a narrow strait that connects the Atlantic Ocean to the Mediterranean Sea and separates Gibraltar and Peninsular Spain in Europe from Morocco and Ceuta (Spain) in Africa. The name comes from the Rock of Gibraltar, which in turn originates from the Arabic Jebel Tariq (meaning "Tariq's mountain") named after Tariq ibn Ziyad. It is also known as the Straits of Gibraltar, the Gut of Gibraltar (although this is mostly archaic),] the STROG (Strait Of Gibraltar) in naval use, and Bab Al Maghrib (Arabic: باب المغرب‎‎), "Gate of the West". In the Middle Ages, Muslims called it Al-Zuqaq, "The Passage", the Romans called it Fretum Gatitanum (Strait of Cadiz), and in the ancient world it was known as the "Pillars of Hercules" (Ancient Greek: αἱ Ἡράκλειοι στῆλαι).

Europe and Africa are separated by 7.7 nautical miles (14.3 km; 8.9 mi) of ocean at the strait's narrowest point. The Strait's depth ranges between 300 and 900 metres (160 and 490 fathoms; 980 and 2,950 ft) which possibly interacted with the lower mean sea level of the last major glaciation 20,000 years ago when the level of the sea is believed to have been lower by 110–120 m (60–66 fathoms; 360–390 ft).
Ferries cross between the two continents every day in as little as 35 minutes. The Spanish side of the Strait is protected under El Estrecho Natural Park.

January tends to be a calmer month in Malaga as the Christmas holidays wind down, but nevertheless, it’s a great time to visit the city!

We celebrate Three Kings Day on January the 6th, which brings with it all the festivities of gifts, good food and family. There are lots of things to do in Malaga in January, so here are our best picks.

On the fifth of January across Spain you will find parades in anticipation of the arrival of the Three Kings. The parades are often huge affairs complete with floats, bands and lots of candy for the children. If you will be in Malaga for Three Kings Day, it is well worth a trip downtown to see the parade.

The festive atmosphere is lots of fun and you can top off your evening with a slice of the traditional Roscón de Reyes.

Take advantage of the sales!

If you will be visiting Malaga soon after the Christmas celebrations end, you’re in luck! This is one of the biggest sale seasons of the year and many of the stores have great deals. We suggest shopping during the week when there are fewer people at the stores, or trying some of the smaller shops, like the vintage stores or independently run boutiques in the center.

Sample some local craft beer

There is something about January that invites you to spend a bit more time indoors (although the weather in Málaga is generally mild). There is a bit of a more humid chill in the air that gets us in the mood for a good craft beer with friends on a Friday after work. If you enjoy trying different craft beers, this is one of the best things to do in Malaga in January.

See the Cirque du Soleil

By now everyone’s heard of the beautiful acrobatic circus performance that is Cirque du Soleil. And in January they are bringing the “Varekai” show to Malaga. It’s a great chance to enjoy a magical evening with the family while you are in Malaga. The Cirque du Soleil will be in town January 21st-24th and tickets are already on sale, so get yours quick and enjoy this interesting performance!

All that jazz

Maybe it’s just us, but we’ve always thought that winter was the perfect time to head out to a jazz club. There’s something about a darkened room, music that seems to vibrate down to your bones and a nice drink in hand is our perfect plan for a weekend night. We suggest Clarence Jazz Club or The Wall at the Hotel Vincci.

Take a food tour!

We don’t close up shop in the wintertime, so make sure you let us know when you are going to be here and come along on one of our delicious food tours!

It’s a 3.5 hour experience which involves exploring the streets of Malaga’s historic center, trying some of our delicious local specialties, and sampling wines from Malaga’s two wine regions, all in the company of an expert local guide!
