Mojácar

Mojácar’s village stands on the last spur of the Sierra de Cabrera and is characterised by white houses and narrow streets. Its surrounding landscape includes ravines, coastal areas and the wetlands of the Aguas river. Local traditions include the Moros y Cristianos festival and the Night of Candles.
