The Costa del Sol/Malaga region:
The costa del sol refers to the stretch of land which runs over 150 kilometres of Malaga province and is one of Spain's most popular tourist destinations for a wide variety of reasons.
The main one being that this area has a mild climate all year round which makes it possible to enjoy the beaches and a wide variety of outdoor activities. The Costa del Sol, and in particular the cosmopolitan city of Marbella, remain the Mediterranean's most popular hotspots for travellers looking for any type of holiday.
The shops and restaurants in old town Marbella, white pueblo of Benahavis, the bars and clubs (and people watching!) in San Pedro, Estepona and Puerto Banus, horse racing in Mijas, polo in Sotogrande or even the history and culture of the many traditional towns and cities in the surrounding area: Ronda, Granada Mijas, Casares, Gaucin, Seville - to name but a few.
