In 48/72 hours you can combine a round at La Torre Golf and, if available, another at a nearby GNK course like El Valle or Hacienda Riquelme, with time for relaxation at the resort.
Your second day fits well with Mar Menor beaches or a cultural visit to Cartagena, highlighting the Roman Theatre and its museum, and closing with local gastronomy.
The third day you can dedicate to water activities at Mar Menor (paddle, snorkel, kayak) and enjoying the resort’s dining or the Cabo de Palos/La Manga area.
Day 1: Golf + relax
- Morning: tee off at La Torre Golf; confirm time with the pro shop and warm up at putting/chipping before your round. If you want a second round on your trip, plan El Valle or Hacienda Riquelme on alternate days.
- Afternoon: pool and rest at the resort; walk around the lake and Town Centre, and book a massage if you want to combine with wellness.
- Evening: dinner at resort dining or nearby with Mediterranean cuisine; book during high season to secure table and time.
Day 2: Beaches or Cartagena
- Morning: Mar Menor beaches option for calm swimming and gentle paddle, or travel to Cabo de Palos for coves and more Mediterranean snorkeling.
- Afternoon: cultural visit to Cartagena with entrance to the Roman Theatre Museum and port walk; ideal to combine museum + theatre in the same tour.
- Evening: tapas through Cartagena’s historic center or return to the resort for a quieter atmosphere by the lake.
Day 3: Gastronomy + Mar Menor
- Morning: Mar Menor activities, from kayak or paddle routes to organized snorkel outings, suitable for families and beginners.
- Afternoon: optional second round depending on availability (El Valle or Hacienda Riquelme) or visit shops and nearby seafront promenade.
- Evening: local product dinner or activity combos with dinner near the beach; in summer periods there are combined sea + snorkel options.
Practical suggestions
- Tee time reservations: during spring and autumn peaks, book schedules in advance at La Torre and nearby courses to secure morning slots.
- Cartagena tickets and schedules: check the Roman Theatre official website for seasonal schedules and special programming.
- Mar Menor activities: choose providers that include equipment and guides for paddle/snorkel, especially with children or beginners.
Variants according to interests
- All golf: alternate La Torre with El Valle and Hacienda Riquelme for variety of Nicklaus designs, maintaining relaxing pool afternoons.
- Intensive culture: dedicate an extra half day to the Roman Forum and themed guided tours of Cartagena.
- Active coast: combine paddle + snorkel or kayak + diving baptism on the same day with operators offering organized combos.
Note
Cultural programming and activity availability change by season; I recommend you check official schedules.
