Holidays Costa del Sol
Formerly a group of quiet fishing settlements, the Costa del Sol is now a world-renowned tourist destination. Its combination of beautiful beaches and mild to hot climate make it an enticing getaway destination. The area has undergone significant development in recent times, increasing the number of villa homes, apartment blocks, and leisure complexes, so there are plenty of accommodation options. But despite this development the area retains a relaxed southern-Spanish charm.
The beaches along the Málaga province are exceptional; from quiet, secluded coves to fashionable stretches. This southern coast is famous for its fresh fish and seafood and the perfect place to dine alfresco. Golf is very popular and there are over 50 courses in the area, all in magnificent locations offering views out towards the sea.
The national parks of Sierras of Tejeda, Almijara and Alhama provide endless options for walkers and nature-lovers. Within the beautiful mountainous region of the Axarquía, deep river valleys, almond and vine-planted hillsides and orange and lemon groves make on-foot explorations an experience for the senses. The shaded pine forests of the Montes de Malaga National Park include magnificent waterfalls and tranquil streams. Visit the Fuente de Piedra Nature Reserve, famous in spring for the visiting flocks of flamingos.
Where to go
Benalmadena
Benalmadena is a mix of authentic Andalusia and top-tourist-getaway. From white-stone, sleepy plazas to the glitzy nightlife, the picturesque harbour to the amusement parks, there is something for everyone.
Fuengirola
Once a tiny fishing village, Fuengirola has burgeoned into a holiday hotspot. It is only 25km from the airport and boasts 5km of idyllic sandy shores and a picturesque town centre.
San Pedro de Alcantara
Ideally located, San Pedro is sandwiched between the glamorous Marbella and the beautiful Sierra de Ronda mountain range. An authentic Spanish village, it is a jumble of winding streets and sun-drenched plazas with an attractive, wide beachfront promenade.
Torremolinos
Renowned for its non-stop nightlife, Torremolinos is a favourite destination among party-goers. It is packed with beach bars, boutique shops and cocktail lounges, as well as having long stretches of sandy beaches, watersport centres and public gardens.
El Angel
Less than three miles from the glamorous tourist hotspot Marbella, El Angel is a tranquil escape in the heart of the Costa del Sol.
Estepona
Blessed with year-round sunshine and 21km of enviable coastline, Estepona is a popular part of Costa del Sol. A quiet town that has retained its authentic Spanish charm, it is the ideal alternative to the commercialised resorts.
