Where exactly is Mojácar?
Now that pronunciation’s sorted, let’s look at where you’ll find Mojácar.
Mojácar sits in the sun-soaked southeast of Spain, at about “5 o’clock” on the map — part of the Andalucía region, famous for its flamenco rhythms, Moorish history, and whitewashed villages.
The mainland of Spain is often referred to as “the Peninsula.” Mojácar itself has two distinct parts: the hilltop village (Mojácar Pueblo) and the coastal area (Mojácar Playa).
Two Sides of Mojácar
- Mojácar Pueblo – A stunning whitewashed village perched on a hill, full of narrow streets, artisan shops, and sweeping Mediterranean views.
- Mojácar Playa – A relaxed coastal stretch lined with cafés, beach bars, and palm-fringed promenades — ideal for mixing work and play.

Mojácar vs Mallorca — A Quick Clarification
We get this a lot! Don’t mix up Mojácar with Mallorca (Majorca).
- Mallorca is a large island in the Mediterranean.
- Mojácar (where DeskSpace is located) is a coastal town on the Spanish mainland.
Both are beautiful — but in our somewhat biased view, Mojácar offers a more relaxed, authentic vibe, perfect for digital nomads and remote professionals.
