Hi all,

Would anyone be able to offer any on worthwhile places to visit in the Murcia area? Particularly near the San Javier airport? Chameleon and tortoise are high on the agenda but its proving difficult to nail some particular sites for either.

Is there anyone in that area who would be happy to show us some of the best places?

Any advice will be repaid in with endless thanks and detailed trip report

Thanks in advance

Managed to find a nice but small selection of species despite the unrelenting heat.

Complete list -
Mediterranean Chameleon
Spanish Psammodromus
Large Psammodromus
Spiny Footed Lizard
Mediterranean House Gecko
Viperine Snake
Western Montpellier's Snake

I'm basing my psammodromus IDs on the presence of a collar but I feel I could be wrong so any corrections would be welcomed
