Malaga, the capital of the Costa del Sol located on the southern coast of Spain, and its popular resorts along the sunny coast are one of the favourite travel destinations worldwide.

This destination combines excellent infrastructure and proximity to the great majority of European cities with a mild climate throughout the year and 160 km of beaches along the resorts of Torremolinos, Benalmadena, Fuengirola, Marbella or to the luxurious Puerto Banus, we provide on this website useful information about the province as well as a guide on how to get to the most popular resorts of the Costa del Sol.

On the Costa del Sol we can find an excellent range of leisure activities and sports; Golf enthusiasts can enjoy in this area over 30 outstanding golf courses, reason why the Costa del Sol is also known as Costa del Golf.

In addition there is a wide range of theme parks and water parks for the whole family, parks and public gardens as well as a few kilometres from the coast there are beautiful landscapes and white villages of Andalusia. Of course there is also a lively nightlife, especially in the city centre, Torremolinos, Benalmadena Puerto Marina and Puerto Banus in Marbella.

The capital itself, Malaga city in recent years is becoming a very attractive place with an interesting offer of culture, monuments and a recently restored charming historical centre with a high density of museums. Due to its excellent communications via its international airport and the high speed train, the city is also a very attractive destination for a break.

Along the Costa del Sol runs the so-called Autopista del Sol highway, connecting all the important beach resorts and the airport. Even though being slower, the old coastal road is still a nice option because of the lovely views along the sea.

All these reasons, along with the affable character of the locals, have contributed to that year after year the Costa del Sol receives a large number of tourists who enjoy the mild climate, the excellent beaches, the relaxed lifestyle typical of the Mediterranean coasts, fabulous gastronomy... and much more!
