What's on in Águilas September 2026
The summer season is winding down as holidaymakers leave, children head back to school and the guided tours and cultural events resume for autumn!
As is the case elsewhere along the coastline of Murcia the summer season in Águilas is definitely at an end now, but the sand and sea are still in tiptop condition and both air and water temperatures are still very pleasant: for many people this is actually the best time of year to visit as air temperatures fall from searingly hot to nicely warm!
What's more, whether you are blessed with children or not, the beach is sometimes more enjoyable without them!
Apart from the beaches there is, as always, plenty more to see and do in Águilas, including museums, sightseeing in the town and along the spectacular coastline, sports and musical activities and events at the majestic seafront auditorium. Plus, if you're feeling peckish, a meal at one of the many restaurants open all year round, where the local red prawns are not to be missed!
Whatever the reason for your visit, don't forget to make the tourist office your first port of call - click here for map.
For further information on these and other events, as well as places to see and visit throughout the municipality, contact the tourist office of Águilas or visit the home page of Águilas Today.
NOTE: This schedule is likely to be updated as the month progresses...
