When tourists plan to spend a holiday in Spain, they usually have in mind the south of the country. Malaga, located in the province, is the unofficial capital of the Costa del Sol and has the most important airport in Andalucia, where most of the tourists fly into.

From the Strait of Gibraltar in the west to Nerja in the west, the Costa del Sol stretches along the coast, occupying about 200 km and including towns such as Marbella, Mijas, Fuengirola, Benalmadena, Torremolinos, Malaga, Rincon de la Victoria and Velez-Malaga.

The Costa del Sol is known particularly for its excellent beaches, active nightlife, gastronomy, the wide range of hotels and leisure, as well as historical sites located throughout the province of Malaga.

Another reason to visit the Costa del Sol is the weather, always pleasant and nearly sunny.

In fact, the average days of sunshine per year far exceeds the 300 days, dominating the heat in summer and moderate temperatures the rest of the year. Therefore, Malaga is worth visiting, both for tourists seeking tranquility in high quality beaches, and those who prefer to party every night and enjoy the local cuisine.
