A celebration of sea, family, food and fun at the Tomás Maestre Marina in La Manga
Tomás Maestre Marina is preparing to welcome locals and visitors to celebrate Marina Day 2025 on Saturday June 14, a full day dedicated to the sea, culture, good food and great company. Following the success of the recent Carburo de Plata Solidarity Regatta, the Marina is now turning its focus to this family-friendly event packed with activities for all ages.
The celebration begins at 11am with a heartfelt tribute to Spain’s State Security and Emergency Forces, followed by a wide range of nautical experiences including sailing school boat trips, tourist boat rides and a spectacular lateen sail regatta. At the same time, guests can enjoy tastings of beer, ham and grilled sardines at El Pulpito Restaurant.
