La Mata Beach

The small beach of La Mata is just outside Torrevieja to the north. It’s found in a small town called La Mata and nowadays it’s one of the top winter destinations for Europeans. The services are now unlimited thanks to a huge rise in tourism in recent years.

It’s only a few kilometers long on both sides of the pretty, well-preserved town. Before, you could arrive in car from Torrevieja, but now you can only arrive by walking along the beach or on the raised wooden walkway.

On the side of the beach, you’ll find a large natural park which houses a variety of bird species. On the other side, you’ll find the small La Mata pier with a lookout tower from the 14th century, a relic from the age of invasions and a typical sight throughout the Mediterranean.

You can have a lot of fun on the beach of La Mata doing different kinds of water sports. There is usually a tent of Torrevieja Surf school during the summer months there. Depending on the sea conditions you can take lessons of surfing and SUP, as well as rent the equipment if you already know how to do it. The instructors are very helpful and speak various languages. They work with all the age groups from kids to older people. Check it out!'https://www.' torreviejasurf.com
