Costa del Sol
The Costa del Sol is one of Spain's most popular tourist
destinations and it stretches along just over 150 kilometres
of Málaga province. The area's warm climate is the main
attraction that makes it possible to enjoy the beaches and
a wide variety of outdoor activities all year round. The area
is extremely popular with the British ex pat community and
holiday makers. With much of Spain's tourist income being
generated here.
Eastern Costa del Sol is the 54 kilometre stretch of coast
to the east of Málaga city (the capital of Málaga province).
Property development on the eastern Costa del Sol is far
less than the western Costa del Sol.
Nerja is the most developed town on this end of the coast
and in recent years has grown rapidly. Much of the eastern
Costa del Sol's accommodation for tourists can be found in
Nerja by way of hotels or rental accommodation. This town
has one of this area's main tourist attractions - the Nerja
Caves, an amazing attraction that is open to the public
and which is host to an annual music and dance festival
within its famous caverns. There are some nice beaches to
be found in this area, the main one being Playa Burriana.
Western Costa del Sol is the 100km of coastline that
begins at Malaga city and stretches westward all the way to
the border of Cádiz province. This part of the coast
revolves around Malaga International Airport (8 km west of
the city) and the N340 coastal highway which connects
you quickly and easily to places like Torremolinos,
Benalmadena, Fuengirola, Mijas Costa, Marbella, San
Pedro de Alcantara and Estepona. From San Pedro de
Alcantara there is a road which takes you inland to the
important historic town of Ronda.
