Accotding to the World Health Organization, Torrevieja is one of the healtiest places to live because of its micro-climate. This is due to the two salt lakes of La Mata and Torrevieja which occupy over half of the total area of the town. This makes the area very beneficial for people suffering from asthmatic, arthritic or rhuematic complaints.

Together with the fact that this beautiful coastline enjoys over 300 days of sunshine per year are just a few of the reasons why many people choose to purchase homes and investment properties on this coast.

 The mild winter temperatures, which seldom fall below 10ºC during the day and can in fact be high enough for sunbathing prove very popular for the many northern europeans who choose to purchase here..

The Costa Blanca weather means that you can really enjoy the outdoor life both in summer and winter.
