O

ne of the most important reasons to visit Torrevieja could be its beaches with their fine sand and crystal clear waters, without doubt the most frequented along the Mediterranean coast. They have all held the European Blue Flag for Clean Seas for several years, awarded for their quality and excellent installations. La Mata, Los Locos, El Cura, El Acequión and Los Náufragos together make up the beaches of the Torreviejan coast, not forgetting the marvellous coves in the northern part, as well as the so-called natural swimming pools which are found beside the Juan Aparicio promenade right in the centre of the town.
