La Mata - Costa Blanca http://www.daydreamvillas.co.uk/rental-spain-information-index/La-Mata/Holida...
La Mata, also known as LaMata and TorreLaMata, is one of the fastest expanding towns in the whole of Spain, but if you're coming to La Mata, try to sample the delights of everything that La Mata has.
La Mata has learned a few lessons from places like Benidorm, because in La Mata, you'll find no high-rise skyscrapers or package holiday hotels and also because La Mata is orientated towards families and couples, you'll find no night time trouble with lager louts etc.
La Mata is surrounded by a large and beautiful natural salt water lake which form the "Salinas de La Mata" and is an official Spanish Nature Reserve. These lakes attract a wide variety of bird life.
La Mata is a developing Tourist Centre and one of the most important on the Mediterranean Coast. However, you'll find it's not nearly as commercialised as the Costa Blanca resorts to the North of Alicante. It still retains that special "Spanish" feel and is in a relaxed environment.
The concentration of salt and the temperature, combine to endow this area with a particularly healthy micro-climate, recommended by doctors for its beneficial properties. Bathing in the salt lagoons is also becoming popular for many medicinal reasons. The climate in La Mata makes it an ideal location for year round holiday activities. Especially, if you want to fulfil that yearning for a round of golf during those dreary winter months in the sunnier parts of Europe.
On average, La Mata enjoys 320 days of sunshine per year and an average daily temperature of 17?C. Temperatures in July and August are typically 30?C. Many people prefer the months when the weather can be near perfect: April, May, June, September, October and November.
