Águilas is a city with a character all its own, where the rugged Spanish coastline and a rich maritime past come together. It is a destination that appeals to both peace seekers and culture lovers, with an atmosphere somewhere between an authentic fishing village and an artistic enclave.
Discover and Experience
The absolute flagship of the city is the Castle of San Juan de las Águilas. This 18th-century fort towers high above the bay and is the perfect spot for a walk with panoramic views. For those who love color and architecture, the steps of the Rincón del Hornillo are highly recommended; they are beautifully decorated with mosaics in the style of Gaudí.
Nature lovers can indulge themselves in the Cuatro Calas protected area. Here you will find four pristine bays with golden-yellow sandstone formations and crystal-clear water. Playa de los Cocedores is particularly impressive due to the natural caves in the rocks. For the active, a kayak trip to the islet of Isla del Fraile is a must: it is one of the best places in the region for snorkeling.
Markets and Events
In March 2026, Águilas will be buzzing with local activity. Every Saturday morning, you can browse the large weekly market in El Hornillo, where you will find everything from fresh fruit to handmade souvenirs. From a culinary perspective, the Mercado "Degustarte" on Sunday, March 15 (Plaza de España) is a highlight, where local producers offer tastings of their best goods. Additionally, the weeks from March 7 to 22 are dedicated to the Fiestas del Agricultor, culminating in a tasty grand finale: the Concurso de Migas on March 22 at the Marina de Cope. If you happen to be in town in early March, you can also just catch the last vestiges of the world-famous Carnival.
The Taste of Águilas
The local cuisine is dictated by the deep sea. The absolute king of the menu is the Gamba Roja de Águilas, a bright red shrimp praised worldwide for its intense, sweet flavor. Other specialties not to be missed include the Pulpo a la Cartagenera (grilled octopus) and the unique Embutidos de la Mar (sausages made from fish). Culinary tip: For dinner with an unforgettable view over the illuminated bay, Restaurante Zoco del Mar is the place to be. Would you prefer to dine among the locals in an authentic harbor atmosphere? Then pull up a chair at Restaurante Ginés for the catch of the day.
The airports of Murcia and Alicante can be reached in about 50 minutes for Murcia and 1 hour and 40 minutes for Alicante, respectively.
