Torremolinos
This is where it all began: what was once a tiny fishing village has become
one of the largest - and most popular - of all the Costa del Sol holiday resorts.
And it's not hard to see why. For sheer choice of hotels, bars, discos and
beaches, good old 'Torrie' is quite simply hard to beat. There is every kind
of café and restaurant imaginable. There are bars in abundance proclaiming
their heritage to one nationality of another; Irish, English, Dutch, German
you name it Torremolinos is likely to have it. The busy nightclubs pump out
the latest music and stay open until dawn or even later.
Mijas
At first sight Mijas is the Andaluz pueblo blanco par excellence - its ancient
white-washed houses clinging to the hillside surrounded by some of the best
coastal views in Spain. In fact its beauty- and easy access from the coast-
has made it a 'mini resort' in its own right with some 90% of the population
now of foreign origin. Keep looking and you may just catch a glimpse of a hand
glider wafting over the peak. Mijas is also well positioned for some of the
area's championship golf courses-including Los Lagos and Los Olivos- and the
panoramic views really are superb!
Benalmadena
The coastal region is where most of the facilities for sun and sand tourism
are concentrated: hotels, a casino, golf courses. Benalmadena has 9km of shoreline
with beautiful beaches and tiny coves. The new Puerto Marina is the place to
go for young "party goers". Popular with locals and tourists alike
the place has a distinctly international feel to it. The area is crammed with
a variety of nightclubs and bars playing the latest music and staying open
until sunrise. The marina is surrounded by apartments and offers sports such
as diving and sailing. Just to the west of Malaga and Torremolinos.
Arroyo de la Miel
Arroyo de la Miel, whose name means "river of honey" is the populated
area between the mountains and the coast in the region of Benalmadena. This
is where most of the area's population and businesses are located and it has
a wide range of attractions including a sports complex, bilingual library and
the world famous theme park Tivoli World. It is also where the cable car to
the mountain peak starts from. Arroyo offers a wide selection of café bars,
restaurants, supermarkets, banks and a health clinic. Arroyo de la Miel is
only 15 minutes by train from Malaga International Airport or a 10 minute journey
by taxi.
Fuengirola
Lively, popular and always buzzing- the resort of Fuengirola has come a long
way from its days as a simple Spanish fishing village. Today it's a fascinating
mix of local Spanish residents and international visitors, many of whom have
made their permanent home in the urbanization housing complexes that stretch
up into the hills. Lying to the east of Marbella it is a bustling little town
during the height of the tourist season. Fuengirola's amazing beach is overlooked
by one of the longest promenades in the Mediterranean and takes just a little
over 2hrs to walk from one end to the other. The Port (Puerto Deportivo) holds
a weekly market which attracts 1000’s of visitors every Sunday throughout
the year from 9am to 2pm, except in July & August the time changes to 7pm
to 1am due to the heat of the daily temperatures.
