Towns of South-East Spain - Costa Calida

Sucina

About 7 km inland from San Javier airport Sucina is probably most people’s idea of a typical Spanish village. Centered around the ‘Nuestra Señora Del Roasario’ church pictured above you will find the normal everyday facilities such as the bank, supermarket, tabac a good selection of bars, restaurants and of course the practical stores for home ware, electrical goods and so on. Sucina has some of the few traditional bakery shops known as Panaderia where you will find the most delicious cakes. There is a great family feel about Sucina – fiestas and siestas are taken very seriously and tradition runs deep into the hearts of the local people.

The town is expanding into the countryside as some exclusive resorts and modest homes are being constructed. Many folk who originally moved to Spain for the coastal resorts are now finding more appeal from villages likes Sucina. There are several of the next golf resorts being constructed in the surrounding areas so the village is bound to prosper and thrive with the increase in visitors. It certainly has the capacity and the desire to see more people there.

Temperatures frequently hit the 30’s in summer and the land is arid here, there are no rivers or lakes so rainwater is precious in these parts. Unlike here in the UK you never hear about hose pipe bans and the residences have no problem with a constant supply of fresh water.

Local farms produce artichokes, beans, melons and tomatoes for export as well as huge crops of almonds.

Sucina has a very nice atmosphere and lots of charm so well worth adding to the list of potential places to view property
