Guide to Costa del Sol
In our first guide to Spain, we take you to the stunning Costa del Sol, or Coast of the Sun.
The name of this region truly deserves more credit.
The sun shines here for 300 days a year with winter temperatures rarely dropping below 15-17 degrees during the day. As a result, it is an absolute paradise for lovers of beaches, golf and delicious food.
Of course, those also looking for an encounter with history will not be disappointed either! Traces of ancient Phoenicians and Romans, medieval Arabs, and also more recently, Spanish Christians, can be found around every corner – their histories interwoven across the landscape and substance of the region.
For your benefit, in our mobile guide we have collected several dozen extraordinary places worth visiting. Allow us to escort you to the most fascinating monuments, beautiful natural wonders and amazing white coastal towns. We warmly invite you to share in all of the places we often visit and enjoy ourselves!
