ALGORFA VILLAGE AND FURTHER AFIELD
Algorfa remains a typical Spanish farming village devoted to growing citrus fruits - oranges and lemons - and lies on the rich agriculture land on the Segura River plain. Curiously the municipal district divides the old town centre in two, as the left side of the road is part of Almoradí and the right side Algorfa.
Algorfa lies between the tourist costal area and the ‘real inland Spain’.
On the road to Benejuzar there is a graceful and unusual church constructed at the beginning of the last century in the very popular Neo-Gothic style of the period. The church can be visited whilst visiting the beautiful green countryside in the fertile valley of the Segura River.
The village is centered around the village square and hosts weekly markets on Tuesday and Sunday. There are a few traditional bars as well as a pizzeria/hamburger bar, butchers, fishmongers, banks, bakery, post office, language school, medical centre and other essential shops.
There is also a Public sports centre which is well maintained and it has a large swimming pool, tennis,gym and squash courts and five a side pitches.
In summer this centre, around the pool area, becomes a social centre with families gathering to discuss the events of the day.
Algorfa has its annual fiesta held in July in honour of the Nuestra Señora la Virgen del Carmen.
Beaches in the Torrevieja area are Playa Guardamar, Playa Flamenca, Playa de Cabo Roig and Playa de la Mata.
There is also beautiful beaches near Murcia which are La Manga and Mar Menor.
Murcia is the perfect city for strolling around. Everything worth seeing is within walking distance.
The most typical things to buy to eat in Murcia are meat pies (including deer pie) from Bonache (in the pretty plaze de las Flores - Flowers square). Shops in the Trapería and Platería are also worth a look.
The Verónicas market is good for famous Murcian market-garden products, fish and seafood.
