Mud baths Las charcas
The famous Lo Pagan mud baths known as Las Charcas de las Salinas or Baños de lodo (mud baths), are situated just past, San Pedro del Pinatar, on the North bank of the Mar Menor (Small Sea) in the province of Murcia.
These therapeutic mud baths are located in the natural saltwater lagoons of the Salinas y Arenales de San Pedro del Pinatar Regional Park (a protected wetland known for its rich biodiversity and large bird population). These lagoons are known for their high salt and mineral content, which contributes to the healing properties of the mud.
Beginning at the small beach and old windmill, the mud baths stretch along the Punta del Algas headland. The mud baths themselves are separated from the rest of the Mar Menor by a small, paved strip of land and can be accessed from special wooden stations positioned along the water.
