Costa Del Sol

Nearly 2 million tourists pass through Malaga Airport each year heading for the sunshine, (300 days per year, annual average 18*c), offered by the internationally famous Costa Del Sol stretching from Nerja to Gibraltar. The Costa del Sol is serviced by both Malaga and Gibraltar Airports.

The most popular resorts are those well known resorts lie west of Malaga beginning with Torremolinos, Benalmadena, Fuengirola and Mijas Costa. Further along the coast lies Marbella with its famous marina at Puerto Banus, Estepona, Sotogrande and finally Gibraltar.

So what is it that makes the area so special? Well for one thing it is the range of sporting activities on offer. Here are just a few examples:

• 70 Costa Del Sol golf courses


• Sailing


• Scugba diving


• Horce riding


• Dolphone safaris


• Zoo's


• Pleasure parks
  

If you want to get away from the beach and do something cultural one can visit the cities of Granda, Cordoba, Seville and Ronda. However if you wish to go further afield whip across to visit Morocco.

The Costa del Sol has numerous typical Andalucian whitewashed villages and my favourites are Casares, Gaucin and Mijas.
