The Vega Baja is full of exciting and interesting activities all through the year. Whether it be water sports at the beaches and Marinas of the Costa Blanca and Costa Calida, to the exhilarating exploration of the many paths and routes in the area.

Golf also plays and important part of leisure with several golf courses nearby, such as:
La Finca (Algorfa) and Altorreal (Molina del Segura) which are considered to be quite challenging and fun courses for novices and experts alike. 

History and culture plays and important part of the regions character. Orihuela has long been regarded as one of the most important ecclesiastic centres of Spain with much of its architecture based on gothic and classical styles which tried to cover up any remnants of its Islamic past. 
The palaces and stately homes of Tudemir, Pinohermoso, Marquis of Rafal, Condes de la Granja, Marquis of Arneva, Rubalcava and Baron of Linde to name but a few as well as the monasteries, convents, chapels and churches (2 cathedrals) which make up the heart of this impressive city. 

La Aparecida has also a range of activities such as trekking along the many paths among the slopes of the Sierra de Orihuela mountain range where wild hares, eagles and quails can be seen amongst the stocky Mediterranean pine tree forests. Furthermore, La Aparecida is home to the area’s recently built indoor municipal swimming and sports centre.

But probably one of the best things to do in La Aparecida is enjoy their fiestas and local cuisine at the many small family run restaurants and tapa bars in all the small villages of the region.
