Welcome to the Costa del Sol. Developing we’ve got received some perception to Malaga, Marbella, Torremolinos, Benalmadena and Nerja.
Malaga is the place to go for tradition and historical past, with well-known websites similar to Alcazaba Fort and Malaga Cathedral unfold throughout town.
First cease for us out of Malaga is Torremolinos. It’s every little thing you’d count on from a Spanish seaside resort; with an enormous number of seashores, resorts and actions. La Carihuela can be our choose of the seashores for households with younger kids, because it’s a bit smaller with plenty of shade and there’s plenty of eating places proper on the seaside.
We discovered that lots of the seashores in Torremolinos have been enormous and actually extensive open; none extra so than Los Alamos seaside, up close to the airport. It will get actually enormous and a bit bit sparse, which implies that if you wish to get away from the principle crowds, you possibly can simply take pleasure in all of this house.
Simply 3km alongside the coast, Benalmadena is the subsequent city alongside from Torremolinos. What we actually appreciated essentially the most was the massive quantity of actions you are able to do. Up first on our record was to go to the Marina.
Subsequent up, seashores! The seashores in Benalmadena are much like these in Torremolinos. Count on lengthy stretches of sand with solar loungers, outlets, eating places and loads of issues to do. Away from the seashores, the cable automotive takes you 771m to the height of Mount Calamorro, the place you possibly can look down on the entire of the Costa del Sol. Another excuse to return to Benalmadena, Mariposario homes tons of of butterflies and is a good place to take the household to be taught all about their lifecycle and environments.
Whereas in Benalmadena, we stayed on the tremendous widespread Vacation Palace Resort Resort. We’re right here on the Vacation Palace in Benalmadena. It overlooks the ocean and also you’ve received the beautiful mountains proper behind you however you’d by no means really want to depart this resort as a result of every little thing is right here readily available. There’s an enormous pool, mini golf, backyard, children play space, actions day-after-day, outlets and extra. The rooms are enormous and ours had mini kitchens and balconies. The one actual draw back for us was that the wifi was gradual and actually costly.
Additional west alongside the coast are Marbella and Puerto Banus. These resorts are the place the wealthy and well-known come to vacation, so it’s expensive down right here, however you’ll discover among the Costa del Sol’s nicest seashores, golf equipment and resorts. Marbella has 17 miles of shoreline, break up into 24 completely different seashores, essentially the most famend of which is the 4-mile stretch famously known as the Golden Mile. One other factor to remember for those who plan to go to Marbella or Puerto Banus are the excessive costs. Meals might be particularly pricey. For 4 of us to have 1 dish and a few comfortable drinks every, it got here to 80 euros. It’s an expensive one right here in Puerto Banus! However for those who’re coming right here, that’s what you want to count on.
We stayed on the Melia Marbella Banus, which is typical of the extra high-end resorts you’ll discover right here. It’s actually costly however you do get what you paid for, because it’s a resort resort in each sense of the phrase.
Nerja is the final cease on our guides to the Costa del Sol. About an hour’s drive east of Malaga, Nerja is the place to return to get away from the vacationer resorts and uncover the secrets and techniques of the Andalusian countryside. The Balcon de Europa is among the hottest vacationer websites in Nerja. It’s a viewpoint that offers you some magnificent views of the shoreline.
Climbing is a well-liked exercise on this a part of the Costa del Sol and for the genuine and most secure expertise, we suggest hiring an area information. We took a tour with John Keo’s guided strolling excursions and it was value each penny. He took us by means of secret paths, by means of canyons and alongside streams, and confirmed us websites that we’d by no means have seen with out him, together with some conventional goat-herding.
