Mazarrón beaches: Playa de Bolnuevo


Costa Cálida Mediterranean beaches: Playa de Bolnuevo

The Playa de Bolnuevo is a vast semi-urban Mediterranean beach running along the coastline of the small town of Bolnuevo, and is one of the 33 which are to be found along the 35-kilometre coastline of Mazarrón between the municipalities of Cartagena and Lorca. 

Geographically, it lies between the Rambla de las Moreras and the Punta Cueva de Lobos, at which point the landscape changes dramatically and the long stretch of sandy beaches which characterise Puerto de Mazarrón ends, to be substituted by a wild stretch of rocky coves and cliffs.

The built-up area of Bolnuevo runs along the seafront behind its beach, a narrow strip of shops, bars and residential apartments which then climbs up the hill behind and contains properties with spectacular views out across the sea.

Much of the first construction was undertaken before the Ley de Costas was passed, and is very close to the the beach itself: this means that much of the seafront construction is low-level, consequently the beach is low density in spite of its proximity to a residential area.

At the eastern end of Bolnuevo is a large campsite, which occupies much of the left hand side of the road driving in from Mazarrón end. From here the glorious 1600 metre long beach runs uninterrupted, starting off fairly thin at the campsite end but opening up as it nears Punta Cueva de Lobos, with an average width of 24 metres.

This vast expanse of sand is never densely populated, as there is so much space.

Parking at the urban end of the beach is difficult, as there is little space in the streets behind, but that is more than compensated for by the huge open parking area which lies at the foot of the Gredas de Bolnuevo, the wind-eroded rocks. Even in the peak of summer this is rarely full.

Out of the holiday season this space is used for a number of community events, including the annual Romería of the Milagro, when the area is filled with horses and carriages and thousands of people celebrating the miraculous event which saved Mazarrón from attack by Berber pirates.

Services

Bolnuevo beach is well serviced by restaurants along its length, with a variety of options on offer, both fringing the beach and on the main road running alongside the beach in the urban area of Bolnuevo.

It’s popular with locals in the know from the residential urbanisations of Mazarrón, who love the beachfront restaurants here and the cocktail atmosphere as the sun sets.

During summer months the beach is well serviced, with foot-washes, lifeguards, children’s play areas, bins and recycling collection points, beach games areas and public toilets, some of which are adapted for disabled use.

There are no specific disabled bathing areas, although access is not difficult to the beach as it is flat and sandy from the onset, and has wooden walkways leading down onto the sand, although not to the shoreline.

This beautiful beach is justifiably popular among expats, locals and visitors from all over the world.
