Fuengirola
Fuengirola is only 25km from Malaga International Airport. It is one of the most popular destinations on the Costa del Sol. It is easily accessible by road, rail or bus, so it is not difficult to see why this buzzing cosmopolitan town on the Mediterranean is the number one choice for so many different kinds of people.
Fuengirola used to be a small fishing village. It now has many up-market tapas bars and good restaurants, interspersed with chic boutiques and other shops of interest, as well as lovely beaches, which makes it a popular holiday destination. One of the Fuengirola’s main attractions is, of course, its wonderful seven kilometres (five miles) of sandy beaches, stretching from the Sohail Castle to the west and Torreblanca to the east. Fuengirola has all the amenities and comforts you need but in a beautiful Mediterranean setting. Whether you love shopping, if you are looking for hairdresser, everything is at hand and usually within walking distance or just a short bus or train ride away.
Andalucia is famous for its beautiful horses. For the expert or the beginner, there is horse riding at the Rancho El Rengo. As well as riding lessons, there are organised treks around the local countryside and along the dry river bed. The stables also have a bar / restaurant – perfect for the times you have worked up an appetite after a ride. For the keen golfer, Fuengirola is ideal, since it is right in the heart of the golfing territory of the Costa del Golf, with Mijas Golf just a few kilometres from Fuengirola centre and many more courses within a very close radius. Also water sports are strongly featured and where better to get to grips with speed boats, jet skis or fishing gear than at the cool marina.
