Anyone out there visited Murcia? If so, please tell me your adventures! My boyfriend is from Murcia and the few times I've been there, we've only did things with his family and rock climbed. We've also been to the hot springs there and have been to some of the little costal towns, but I was wondering if there are more things to see. I am still trying to convince him to take me to Cartegena and see the Roman ruins....

Hi, ive never been to Murcia, so i cant answer any of your questions, sorry, but could I ask you where the hot springs are and are they worth a visit? Im travelling through there in April.

Most probably the hot springs are "el balneario de archena". http://www.balnearioarchena.com

In Murcia, there is two different half separated by the montains "El altiplano" the plateau where Murcia, Lorca and Molina are and the coast....Cartagena, Mazarrón,

Keep in mind that the guys in the plateau and the seaside (specially Cartagena)have a friendly rivalry...

Yes, the spring are worth the visit. When we went in Dec., it was cold outside about 55 degree Farenhit and the water was at least 70 degrees. It was so nice and it was cheap for the visit (5 euros) to the pool part only. If you want to do a whole day, it is a spa and you could have a mud bath, massage, etc...
