Holidays to Costa del Sol

Information about Costa del Sol

With its unique microclimate, beautiful beaches, and all year-round sunshine, the Costa del Sol is the world Mecca for holidaymakers. Sparkling blue waters glisten in the sun as boats and yachts pull out of the many marinas dotted across this expansive coastal region. From Malaga province in the east, to the cusp of Cadiz province in the west, the Costa del Sol, which literally means, "sunny coast," is southern Spain's unique autonomous community. Its white-washed villages have become a delightful attraction for those looking for a flavour of authentic Andalucian life, while popular coastal towns such as Marbella and Puerto Banus, have become extremely popular destinations for great entertainment. Formerly comprised of fishing villages, mass tourism has transformed the Costa del Sol into a top tourist destination, with the typical Costa del Sol beach party providing a pulsating nightlife, plenty of water sports during the day, and fantastic beaches to bask in the sun. An ideal destination for a last minute holiday.
