The Unique Natural Wealth
The area is internationally renowned for the spectacular Parque Natural de las Lagunas de La Mata y Torrevieja. This nature park is home to the famous salt lakes, of which the Salina de Torrevieja periodically takes on a striking pink color – a phenomenon caused by algae and bacteria. It's an excellent place to walk or cycle and observe the salt extraction and countless bird species, including majestic flamingos. For a quieter, greener experience, the Parque del Molino del Agua, with its fossil dunes and umbrella pines, is ideal.
The Culinary Heart: Sea and Salt
Torrevieja's cuisine is directly linked to the sea and salt extraction, resulting in honest and fresh dishes. The absolute specialty is the "wet" rice dish Arroz Caldero, a creamy rice dish cooked in a rich fish broth, often served with fish. Rice is the foundation of many regional dishes, such as the many variations of paella and Arroz a Banda. Thanks to its coastal location, fresh seafood is ubiquitous. Try the local salted fish known as Salazones (such as Mojama or salted tuna), or the perfectly prepared grilled fish. For a more substantial meal, there's the hearty stew Cocido con pelotas, a traditional dish with large, seasoned meatballs. Along the promenade and in the harbor, you'll find numerous tapas bars and restaurants where you can sample these local delicacies, often accompanied by a glass of refreshing local wine.
