FUENGIROLA

It is the third Major tourist development on this section of Spain's Costa del Sol. This huge resort covers some 10km of coastline with intensive developments of hotels and apartments many of them high rise forming the typical concrete jungle resort which attracts tourists.
The Beaches are impressive and spread the whole length of the resort area apart from the central marina area from where you can take part in a selection of water sports. Surprisingly in such a tourist centre you'll still see fishermen out on their small trawlers each morning catching your evening meal should you frequent one of Fuengirola's seafood restaurants where the morning's catch becomes the evening specialty.

Tuesday is a big day for Shopaholics when the weekly market which moves up and down the coast each day is set up in the centre of town and is the the Costa del Sol's most popular market destination. If you're feeling a little more energetic you'll find plenty places from where you can go windsurfing and scuba diving is popular.
There's a zoo which should keep the kids amused for a few hours as well as a water park. The main square, Plaza de la Constitución, has been re-designed but still retains its unique enchantment. It looks pretty especially at Christmas and Fuengirola Summer Festival where the whole town takes part in the annual street celebrations.

Golf
Fuengirola is especially popular with golfers as it is ideally located for access to a wide selection of courses on what has become known as Spain's Costa del Golf.
