Tourism is the backbone of Los Alcázares’ economy, with the beautiful beaches, water sports, and hospitality sector driving both local and international visitors to the area. The city’s coastal location also supports a strong fishing industry, which continues to provide fresh seafood to local markets and restaurants. Agriculture, especially the cultivation of fruits and vegetables, also plays a critical role, with the surrounding countryside known for producing high-quality produce that is exported across Europe.
Unique local businesses include artisanal crafts and traditional food products. Visitors will find numerous small shops offering handmade ceramics, locally produced wines, and olive oils. The blend of tourism, agriculture, and small-scale artisanal production gives the city a dynamic economy that caters to both visitors and locals alike.
