Playa del Pudrimel, a Mediterranean beach in the San Javier section of La Manga del Mar Menor


Playa del Pudrimel, a Mediterranean beach in the San Javier section of La Manga del Mar Menor

1,500 metres of Mediterranean beach at the northern end of La Manga

Playa del Pudrmiel is close to the northern end of La Manga del Mar Menor, and services the Aldeas de Taray and Las Góndolas residential areas between kilometres 17.2 and 16.3. At 1,500 metres it is a long natural beach, and at an average of 18 metres wide it is one of the largest in the area. 

The sand is naturally fine and greyish, and makes it a very attractive Mediterranean beach although it is one of the furthest if travelling to La Manga from the mainland.

Development in this area is much lower density than at the southern end of La Manga, so there is low occupany at Playa del Pudrimel. Services and facilities include footwashes, bins, toilets, wooden walkways, telephones and beach cleaning.

Access: a bus service runs right along the length of La Manga throughout the day, with several stops near the beach, and there is generally plenty of parking in the built-up area except at times in July and August.

The Mediterranean beaches of San Javier

San Javier has two distinct sections of beaches, one being in Santiago de la Ribera on the shore of the Mar Menor, close to the main centre of San Javier town, and the other on the opposite side of the Mar Menor on the spit of land called La Manga de Mar Menor (or "the strip", as it is often referred to by holidaymakers), where there are both Mar Menor and Mediterranean beaches.

It is important when choosing a beach to understand that the Mar Menor beaches offer shallow and calm bathing conditions, whereas the Mediterranean beaches are wider, longer, windier, and are susceptible to wave conditions and currents.

The internal area of the Mar Menor is divided among several municipalities, or local councils. The La Manga strip is divided into two sections for administrative purposes, although there is no geographical difference, the northern end belonging to San Javier and the lower section which limks with Cabo de Palos falling within Cartagena.

Almost the entire length of La Manga del Mar Menor is lined with holiday apartments, hotels and summer properties, although it does also have a significant year-round residential population. But towards the northern end the land narrows, and the concentration of properties is lower, so the beaches are emptier.

The location of La Manga del Mar Menor beaches is generally defined by kilometre reference. Kilometre 0 is the tourist information point at Cabo de Palos and km 18 is the far end of La Manga by the Esculls de la Llana y Encañizadas, which is where dry land runs out! The northernmost end of the strip is marshy and largely inaccessible, before it finally just fails to join up with the salt flats of San Pedro del Pinatar.
