This website contains information about my 'holiday home' near Mazarron,
Murcia Region, Spain.
The image below was taken during a lengthy and very enjoyable walk during
May 2019,
at the pier and small harbour in La Azohía with the Torre de Santa
Elena on the hill above.
Note: I respectfully draw your attention to the
important "Notice" link in the left column.

19NOV19 - To see full details of changes
in national and local "Water Reserves" from July 2014 to 18 November 2019
across Spain and in the Murcia Region ('Segura Basin'), please visit
my 'Links' page, click on 'Water' in the top menu bar, or scroll down the
page to the section called "Water Reserves" - or go straight to the
"Water Reserves" section by clicking

16NOV19 - (This amends a notice
first published on 18JAN19.) Toll rates effective 15JAN19 for certain
Spanish toll motorways "rescued" by the State from their operators that had
gone into liquidation, including the AP-7 (Cartagena to Vera Sector), have
been reduced by approximately 30%, and in addition toll fees overnight between
midnight and 6 a.m. have been abolished completely for this sector. For most
other State supported toll motorways (generally the more popular and heavily-used
ones), tolls have been increased by about 1.67% for 2019 compared with 2018,
in accordance with a formula agreed in 2002; toll rates are usually revised
at the beginning of each calendar year. Full tariff details for 2019 for
toll motorways have now been published, including for the AP-7 (Cartagena
to Vera Sector); you can go straight to the main 'Location' page by clicking
here where
there is a link to see the amended 2019 rates.
29AUG19 - I have updated the section
in my 'Links' page for Airlines to include a link to Binter, which
will shortly commence flights from Murcia Region International Airport (RMU)
to Las Palmas (Gran Canaria). According to reports I have read, it will start
taking bookings from Monday 2nd September 2019 for flights commencing Tuesday
29th October 2019. Please visit my 'Links' page and the 'Airlines' section
there to find this information, or you can go straight to the relevant section

16AUG19 - I have updated the section
in my 'Links' page for Public Holidays to show public holidays for 2020 in
Murcia Region. You may also continue to view public holidys for 2019

Valenciana') and throughout Andalucia. Please visit my 'Links'

have transferred effective today to the new Murcia Region International Airport
