Mojacar Holidays Resorts

Mojacar Playa consists of over 5 km of bars, hotels, restaurants, shops and cafes. 50% of the population is non-spanish and over 50 years old. This demography has affected the culture of Mojacar Playa. Gone are the few simple beach bars and hotels. The beach now boasts several English supermarkets and businesses. A new paseo (walkway) runs a third of the length of the beach. The atmosphere, once considered bohemian, is now more cosmopolitan with many people bringing their culture and talents to work and live in area.

During the summer months the beach is crowded, but much less so than most other coastal resorts in Spain. For those seeking quieter and more natural surroundings, there are still 11km of virgen beach extending towards the protected Cabo de Gata natural park, currently being changed irrevocably by developers. The developments of Marina Playa and Macenas Playa are adding thousands of homes to the area.
