Top 5 things to do in Costa del Sol
Cram in the culture on your Costa del Sol holiday. Home to exciting cities, ancient mountain villages and everything in between.
- The city of Malaga is well known for its sightseeing. Castle ruins, Picasso museums, an upmarket harbour and, the historic highlight, a grand Moorish fortress built in the 11th century.
- Traditional Spanish charm can be found in the cobbled streets of Mijas. With beautiful views towards the coast, this little village is a warren of quaint shops selling handmade treasures.
- The picture-perfect delights of Marbella’s Old Town have stood the test of time. The romantic Andalucian squares, tiny chapels, trickling fountains and cosy cafes are a delight to explore.
- See how the other half live at the award-winning Puerto Marina in Benalmadena. Over 1,000 luxurious yachts are moored alongside interesting architecture, upmarket shops and restaurants.
- For something really special, coincide your Costa del Sol holiday with a traditional festival. From Easter processions to powder throwing parties, they’ll add a final flourish to your unforgettable trip.
Natural wonder on the Costa del Sol
Set your sights on the Costa del Sol countryside and discover the likes of dramatic gorges, incredible wildlife and underground caves.
- Hike the trails of El Torcal Natural Reserve and stand in awe at its inspiring geology. A playground of limestone spires, undulating caverns and otherworldly rock formations.
- In Nerja, an underground cave system invites you to step below the surface and uncover thousands of years of history. Incredibly, these cathedral-like caverns lay undiscovered until 1959.
- Pinned against a gorge in the Malaga mountains, El Caminito Del Rey’s narrow walkway teeters 300 feet above the canyon floor. It’s a thrilling day trip, if you can handle the heights.
- With plentiful sunshine, over 70 golf courses and home to big prize tournaments, the Costa del Sol is a golfer’s paradise. Whether you’re a budding enthusiast or a seasoned pro, it’s a hole in one.
- Montes de Malaga Natural Park is a green hideaway just five kilometres outside Malaga city. Climb the rugged mountains, spot eagles and marvel at panoramic views out to sea.
