The region of Murcia offers a tourist attraction which is unique in the whole of the Spanish east coast - and it’s the Bay of Mazarron, geographically placed in the Vera golf, it’s one of the few idealistic places in the Mediterranean where you can see this spectacular family of the animal kingdom.

Mazarron is an exceptionally good tourist destination, to its 35 kilometres of coastline, its 33 beaches and its rich historic, cultural and scenic heritage we can now add yet another attraction: the possibility that visitors have of doing a sea excursion to observe the different species of cetaceans, such as the dolphin.

The unique position that Mazarron has in Spain for these type of sightings led to the creation several years ago of a service called Cetaceans and sailing by two young people from Mazarron who were lovers of the sea and nature. This service specialises in organising sea excursions in the area, which can be a day, a weekend or a week. The vessel used is a remodelled 20 metre Turkish schooner. The objective of these trips is to be able to observe these cetaceans in their natural environment.

What was supposed to be a complementary activity for tourists is fast becoming an attraction in its own right, and making people from all over Spain and Europe come to Mazarron to enjoy this unique experience which can only be experienced in a few places around the world, such as Argentina, Canada, The straits of Gibraltar and the Azores.
