Wil Hardman (X) (asker) Feb 9, 2009:
Hi Noni, it was marketing a company's services, presumably for a website. It was a rush job that was cancelled mid-job and so not to waste any more time I used Mediterranean Arc (which isn't wrong it seems) but I agree with you, it would mean nothing to the average Brit. It seems there is widespread confusion about what the "Arc" actually is. Cristina's first reference seems most likely to me: Madrid-Cuenca-Albacete-Arco mediterráneo (Mediterranean Arc). This seems to be refering to a rail line that runs from Madrid to the East of Spain...
Noni Gilbert Riley Feb 9, 2009:
Who's this for, Wil? Although we can translate the term, your average Brit won't know what we're talking about, I fear... if it's just for geographical location, I'd go along Aoife's lines, something descriptive rather than literal.

Spain's Mediterranean coast/coastline

Hi Wil. In this case I would go back to basics. Murcia is more or less at the centre of Spain's Mediterranean coastline, so as long as your translation reflects this fact, you should be ok.
