La Marina
From front
A PERFECT SETTING coastal village, which is administered by Elche, La Marina Urbanisation sits in A privileged setting near protected pine forests, popular beaches - many of which have the coveted blue flag status - and golf courses. Then there are its wonderful salt marshes, which turn pink at certain times of year, due to local mining, and are inhabited by flocks of flamingos and other birds. This is a true bird watcher’s paradise. The urbanisation is conveniently located a 20-minute drive from Alicante-Elche airport and 45 minutes from Murcia airport. This makes it an ideal hub for holidays or for residents to hop back and forth to the UK (or Holland or Sweden ect). Although the urbanisation is self-contained, offering all the facilities residents might need, it is also within easy driving distance of a number of large commercial centres home to the best European chain stores. It’s also just a stone’s throw from the renowned Guardamar del Segura
beach (5km), the La Marquesa golf course (3km), the Santa Pola amusement park (15km), and the massive international camping resort, only 1km away.
Attractive builds on a huge estate One of the largest urbanisations in Spain, and possibly in Europe, San Fulgencio has 9,000 full time inhabitants, 66% of whom are foreign nationals and approximately 3,000 are British. Back in La Marina, many of the European residents fly their countries’ flags on their properties, so you conveniently know where they came from. The urbanisation comprises a big range of villas, bungalows, chalets, and new builds with ample terraces, on private plots – some of which

ALWAYS CARING Jennifer Cunningham reveals why La Marina proved the ideal place to expand her business and launch a charity to provide hospice care within the expat community
L
app to find your way around. To help non-drivers, an urban bus service has been launched, running on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays.
A home from home for Northern Europeans With such a strong population of extranjeros ‘the urb’, as it is affectionately known, is designed to make English-speakers feel at home. Having said that, the Olive Press encountered some Spanish residents strolling around on a quiet Sunday evening.
Some of the supermarkets have a British feel – but with palm trees outside - while Consum has its own square with ample parking and you’ll find daily baked bread, pastries, fresh fruit and vegetables and delicacies of Spanish, English, French, and German origin… and, of course, your favourite English newspaper, the Olive Press, every fortnight. A good choice for Brits, the Overseas supermarket - encompassing Iceland and Waitrose - lies at the bottom end of ‘the urb’. This store is full of British favourites, such as Ambrosia rice, chicken and mushroom soup, and curry sauces – you’ll be dazzled with delight at what can be taken home. Mum has gone to Iceland – and might never emerge again! The store is part of a growing commercial centre that is expanding with the addition of new shops and some bar/restaurants. La Marina is jaw-droppingly huge, and it would be easy for a newbie to circle round wondering where to find the recreation club or the ‘satellite roundabout’, so-called because it has radio masts there. Luckily, the tourist office is available with friendly staff who can lend a helping hand with maps, advice, and leaflets. They can provide information on a series of guided walks run by San Fulgencio town hall, that take in the sand dunes and other points of interest. Some of the walks occur at night, to avoid the hot summer daytime overheating the participants. But you can, of course, go on your own.
IKE many of those who end up living in Spain, it was after enjoying a holiday with friends on the Mediterranean coast that Jennifer took the decision to relocate from North London to sunnier climes for a quieter life. But the move gave Jennifer a new lease of life and with it the realisation that she wasn’t quite ready to retire. Instead she started up what has become one of the most successful expat businesses in Spain. With one of the highest densities of foreign residents in Spain, this part of the Costa Blanca was crying out for someone to design special insurance packages for the expat market and the business thrived. What began with one small office in Javea has now grown to seven branches across the Costa Blanca and one in Lanzarote. The La Marina branch of Jennifer Cunningham Insurance opened in 2007 followed by another in Benijofar later that year and then a branch in Playa Flamenca five years later. At the same time as she opened an office in La Marina, Jennifer set about doing something that MUCH MISSED: Jennifer’s son Paul inspired her really mattered to her on a personal level. She created a hospice charity that offers inva- charity from her La Marina base luable support to the terminally ill and their families among the expat community. The charity is very close to her heart as she set it up following the death of her son Paul from cancer when he was only 33-years-old after witnessing the care he was given during his last days in a Sue Ryder hospice in Bedfordshire. “They had taken such exceptional care of my son but on my return to Spain I looked around activities are once again returning to pre-panto see what would happen if someone was in demic levels. the same circumstance here in Spain and disco- These efforts enable the charity to provide free vered that there really wasn’t anything similar. hospice care for people in their own home People were simply being sent home to die to be those who are discharged from hospital once cared for by their family, but what if there is nothing more doctors can that wasn't possible?” do for them.

VERY Thursday from 9am to 2pm, La Marina holds a market in the square on Calle Lisboa. Also, on Saturdays, a batch of stallholders set up on the edge of the urbanisation and sell their goods. The market is the place to buy locally grown fruit and vegetables, fresh breads and meats, ceramics, gifts, bedding, clothes, shoes, and accessories – or just take in the scene – maybe from a nearby bar. Those who want to be active, and like water, can opt for one of two private swimming pools / leisure
centres – The Hillside and The La Marina Sport Complex - which have water fountains, children’s

play floats, mini water slides, etc. You can chill out at the poolside bar and restaurant or enjoy a game of snooker on the nearby terrace. The public swimming pool in San Fulgencio is also available for visitors.
Bowling
There are also tennis courts set among the residential areas, as well as bowling. A short drive away, you can play golf. If that all sounds too active and you simply want to bag a shopping bargain, the charity shop is well-stocked and helps protect abandoned and m i s t r e a te d animals in nearby Torrevieja.

BEACH LIFE
L
A MARINA isn’t a beach resort, but it is close to some great expanses of sand. If you stroll south from the ‘urb’, down a road bordered by a pine forest, you’ll come to Playa La Marina: this doesn’t belong to the urbanisation, as it is administered by the town of Elche. It has an expanse of golden sand and a watchtower for a lifeguard. Down from there is Playa Rebollas and Playa Toassales. There’s also a naturist beach to the north, for those brave enough to disrobe.

T
HE village of La Marina is a 5-minute drive from La Marina Urbanisation. Home to around 3,000 people, it is bordered by a pine forest and golden, sandy beaches (one of the longest on the Costa Blanca is 17 kilometres long and comprises El Pinet, La Marina and El Rebollo). Here, you’ll find beach bars (chiringuito) where you can enjoy delicious plates of fresh calamari.
San Fulgencio, the nearby town, was founded in 1729 when a local notable called Cardinal Belluga obtained marshy land around the delta of the Segura River from Orihuela and Guardamar del Segura. He wanted to drain the wetlands and make them fertile and productive. San Fulgencio was named after the patron saint of Murcia. It has diversified from traditional farming to serve the tourism industry. The town has fiestas, a selection of shops and a market every Tuesday. Just 15km away is La Laguna de Torrevieja, where waters turn pink at certain times of year. Although this is usually from August, some already had a pinkish hue in June. Like what happens in the Dead Sea, this phenomenon, unique in Spain, is produced by a bacterium that releasMOTHER TOWN: La Marina is part of San Fulgencio

At the heart of the ‘urb’ The Olive Press meets Darren Parmenter, tourism councillor for San Fulgencio and La Marina Urbanisation
D
ARREN PARMENTER, a British ex-journalist, has lived on ‘the urb’ since 1991 and was elected to the town council following the May 2019 elections. He is responsible for San Fulgencio’s tourism department and plays an active role in the tourist office and promoting the area. Darren arrived at La Marina some 30 years ago, after visiting a tourist fair. He says: “I bought ‘a piece of mud’ on the urbanisation, back in 1989, at a property exhibition in Benidorm. I was thinking ‘investment and holiday home’.” “At the time, I was living with my parents in Campello, near Alicante, who had taken early retirement. During a visit in 1991, I decided that I liked the area, the location, people, and amenities. I decided to move here permanently, and my late parents bought a
house near mine in 1994.” He describes the ‘urb’s’ many benefits: “We have a community spirit, which wouldn’t exist if people were spread around the countryside. There’s a feeling of security and having neighbours to call upon when needed.” “We also have nine supermarkets and a great selection of bars, cafes, and restaurants to suit all tastes and budgets. There’s a sports area with a tennis court, padel, tennis, and a newly turfed football pitch. The Social Centre holds events daily, such as keep fit, Pilates, craft classes, and more.” Regarding his role as a town councillor, he says: “My previous role as a journalist showed me what other municipalities were doing, and highlighted that San Fulgencio was missing out on many potential initiatives. I wanted to help put San Fulgencio back on the map and I think this has been achieved.” “Just for example, we’ve produced our first ever promotional video, and, in January 2022, we had our first slot at FITUR - the
Madrid tourism fair. We’ve introduced the popular ‘Rutas Turisticas’ walking routes and the ‘Summer Shopping Bus’, as well as a ‘Recipe Book’ containing a selection of traditional dishes from the area.” He adds: “With the aim of promoting ing example in this part of Vega Baja.” future tourism from the UK, we plan to Darren is noticeably proud of the ‘Ruattend the World Travel Market in Lon- tas Ecoturisticas’ (ecotourism routes) don in November 2022, as part of the that his department launched in 2020.

fond of this location. He says: “It’s a typical Spanish village that has kept its quaint, narrow streets. It has a beautiful church, a refurbished museum, a theatre, music school and auditorium, sports centre, swimming pool, and a selection of typical Spanish bars and restaurants.” He emphasises that La Marina Urbanisation and San Fulgencio are ideally located for tourists. He says: “By being halfway between Alicante-Elche Airport and Corvera (Murcia), and close to the N-332 trunk road and motorways, it is an ideal base to explore the other 26 municipalities of the Vega Baja, as well as Elche, Alicante and Murcia. Here, you can experience unique histories and gastronomies. We’re also close enough to, but far enough away, from the beach.” Don’t forget to download the ‘Descubre San Fulgencio’ app to your smart device.
