History of La Manga Club |

 La Manga Club has functioned as a top quality holiday resort since its initiation more than thirty years ago.
The resort was born out of the hard work and vision of US entrepreneur Gregory Peters in the 1960s.
La Manga had already begun development as a resort during this time when Mr Peters saw its potential and began to make a number of property purchases on the Mar Menor coastline.
His initial project concerned developing a high-level tourist attraction golf course in the region and before long, 450 hectares of land became the La Manga Golf Course.
