Mar Menor – a perspective from the first mate

A little known fact to us is that Spain has an inland sea just south of Alicante.  Mar Menor as they call it is an inland sea that is almost 12 nm long and its deepest point is 6m.  The water’s high salinity, density, and temperature make a great spot for water sports…such as sailing.  We made a one night stop over with the assistance of the port captain to had to open the bridge to let us in.  Next stop the Balearic islands.
