Costa Del Sol Advice please...
In a previous post I mentioned we will be spending our holidays over the next few years in different areas of Spain, in a hope that we come across an area we may one day like to settle.
In a few months we will be spending a few weeks in the La Cala de Mijas area of the Costa Del Sol and whilst I am there will have time to check out some different areas. Does anyone have any ideas of nice places to visit when we are out there ? If I'm honest I don't think the High Rise look of the Costa Del Sol appeals to me for more than a week or two but I'm hoping someone can recommend some nice areas that I don't know of. Somewhere that has a nice beach, selection of bars and restaurants but without the bustle of Fuengirola etc. Surely all of the Costa Del Sol isn't a concrete jungle ?? Thank you all. |

You will find lots of interesting little spots. One of my favourites is Nerja.

We live in Mojacar Playa (Costa Almeria) which is 2 hours drive east of Málaga. It is a resort populated equally by Spaniards/expats. Except for two hotel complexes at either end of the resort and three miles apart Mojacar Plays is low rise. Mojacar Pueblo is 1.5 miles inland and is a beautiful white town perched on top of a small mountain. Despite tourism it has not lost its charms.

Thank you all. things to do ; marbella - the old square playa de los Naranjos - is lovely and worth seeing whether to eat churros / tapas or a wander around the cobbled streets people watching or window shopping as there are many lovely boutique shops Puerto Banus marina is lovely just to sip a cocktail and people watch - lots of yachts berthed just now and a Xmas market. Very pretty. Ronda - stunning village in mountains. Can’t describe how beautiful. Google for pictures. Benahavis - lovely mountain village - lots of restaurants , gin bars and lots of outdoor sport activities on the lake Tarifa - most famous place in Spain for wind sports. Beautiful bohemian feel. i love the area. Lots to see 😎 |
Re: Costa Del Sol Advice please...
You can still live in Costa Del Sol area and avoid high rise just avoid being right on the Costa. Inland a KM or so and you avoid high rise. It depends if you are happy in a pueblo or Campo rather than the Costa itself. As always horses for courses.
