Fuengirola, Mijas and Mijas Costas apartments and villas: This area has miles of sandy beaches, flanked by high-rise hotels and residential blocks of apartments with magnificent views of the Mediterranean and sweeping coastline. It is within half an hour of Malaga airport.

Fuengirola has an impressive castle, most likely of Roman origin, situated outside the town on a hill. Its marina is home to some impressive yachts, leisure craft and fishing boats. The beaches at Fuengirola, Los Boliches - Gaviotas and Torreblanca are rated European blue flag. There are special areas designated for Windsurfing, beach volleyball and other water sports.

High above Fuengirola and Mijas Costa, Mijas still retains much of its charm with little whitewashed houses perched on the hillside and the donkey-taxis which line the central plaza. There are spectacular views of the coast and surrounding heavily wooded mountains from its narrow cobbled streets.

Mijas Costa is the place to go for sun, sand and water sports. The beaches at La Cala have been awarded the "Blue Flag".

The Mijas municipality includes Sitio de Calahonda, known as the English village - the place to come for pubs, karaoke, second hand shops, British doctors and dentists and Indian restaurants - and Riviera del Sol, also popular with foreigners with its large commercial centre and well equipped sports centre which includes an 18 hole golf course and tennis club. There are lots of pretty coves and beaches and the accommodation complexes are generally well designed.
