Whether you’re a beach lover, golfer, night owl or culture vulture, there are an infinite number of things to do on the Costa del Sol just waiting to charm and entertain you.
Entertainment can be found in abundance in Marbella, the glitziest resort on the Costa del Sol and a favourite location for the rich and famous. Here you will see this wealth glitter most brightly along the Golden Mile where star-studded clubs, restaurants and hotels stretch to neighbouring Puerto Banús, home of the flashiest marina on the Costa del Sol.
Away from this chic, Marbella old town has cobbled streets and flower-filled plazas packed with delightful shops and art galleries. Its gastronomic scene is second to none, with everything from beachfront chiringuitos to Michelin-starred restaurants.
While millions of visitors pass through Malaga Airport each year, the clear majority stay in the resort towns of the Costa del Sol without venturing into Malaga City.
Full of beautiful churches, striking monuments, vibrant street cafes, traditional tapas bars, over 30 art galleries and museums and a stunning port area with award-winning restaurants, Malaga city is just waiting to be explored.
Shopping and eating in Malaga
Compact and easy to walk around, Malaga is also a mecca for shopaholics and foodies, with chic boutiques, designer labels galore and a vast choice of fresh fish, seafood and exotic fruit and vegetables at the Atarazanas Market (Central Market).
If you want to combine history and culture with eating and drinking, visit the Antigua Casa de Guardia, the oldest tapas bar in Malaga (established in 1840). Choose from a range of classic Spanish wines and sherries, served from traditional wooden barrels. Try the delicious tapas, standing at the bar, ‘Spanish-style’ for an authentic experience.
MALAGA
With over 70 stunning golf courses, the Costa del Sol is one of the world’s top golfing destinations.
Boasting 325 average days of sunshine each year, the ‘Sunny Coast’ offers a choice of courses for golfers of all abilities, from beginners to professionals. Most courses are easily accessible and located within an hour’s drive of CLC Club La Costa World.
The Costa del Sol became known as the ‘Costa del Golf’ after the Ryder Cup was hosted at Valderrama in 1997. The coast remains home to three of Europe’s top courses, including Real Valderrama in Sotogrande, Finca Cortesin in Casares and Real Las Brisas in Marbella.
Every year, thousands of golfers shake off the winter blues in northern Europe and head for the sunshine of southern Spain. High season for golf here is from late September through to early May, when temperatures are ideal for playing.
GOLF
Boasting a wide choice of stylish shopping centres, designer stores, high-end boutiques and quirky food markets within easy reach of CLC Club La Costa World, the Costa del Sol is a shopper’s paradise.
Luxury Retail
Established as a world-class luxury department store since opening in 1940, El Corte Inglés is the biggest department store group in Europe, with 83 stores across Spain and Portugal. Three stores are situated between Malaga and Marbella and sell everything from homewares and jewellery to designer clothes and food.
Find all the latest trends, gadgets and a wonderful choice of traditional Spanish produce. Once you have shopped ‘till you drop,’ relax in one of the store’s bars and restaurants for a bite to eat and a drink.
Synonymous with style, glamour and luxury, Puerto Banus offers a wealth of top-end shops and boutiques alongside the stunning display of super-yachts bobbing up and down in the Marina. If ritzy restaurants and fast cars are your ‘thing’, Puerto Banus is the perfect place to shop and people-watch!
SHOPPING ON THE COSTA DEL SOL
A magnificently preserved old town with a maze of lanes, convents, museums, churches, palaces and monuments, all of it a UNESCO World Heritage site, is a major part of Ronda’s visually stunning appeal. The town’s immense El Tajo gorge is another.
Drink in the astounding views from the walkway that skirts the gorge and the 18th century El Puente Nuevo bridge that links the historic centre with the ’new’ town, straddling a yawning, 100m chasm.
Gaze over the cliff sides which fall in dizzying descent to the river, Rio Guadalevín; it was here many are reputed to have met their deaths during Spain’s Civil War, despatched over the ramparts. Hemingway’s fictional account in ‘For Whom the Bell Tolls’ may well have been based on factual accounts.
Look out across the Serranía de Ronda mountains for views that will leave you reeling with wonder (and as eager as every other visitor to capture these moments with your smartphone or camera). The poet Rainer Maria Rilke described Ronda as a ‘town of dreams’, and while man may have made it the scene of nightmares at times during its history, it continues to be as captivating today – he also wrote ´there is nothing that is more startling in Spain than this wild and mountainous city’!
RONDA
For Fuengirola read FUNgirola as this busy and very popular seaside town is dense with a huge variety of shops, bars, restaurants, cafes and nightclubs along and behind its 7km swathe of broad sandy beaches.
A traditional destination for holidaying families that originally – like so many other places along the Costa del Sol – was a tiny fishing village, Fuengirola may have all the tourist trappings but has never lost its Spanish identity; this despite it long being an ex-pat stronghold for Europeans eager to embrace the sunshine lifestyle, chiefly Brits.

Just a 90-minute drive away from CLC Club La Costa World, Granada boasts a wealth of historical attractions, including the jewel in the city’s crown – the Alhambra Palace.
Without doubt one of Spain’s most photographed cities, Granada and the Alhambra Palace attract over 3 million visitors each year.
One of the best-preserved monuments in Spain and amazingly intricate and beautiful, the Alhambra deserves its status as a World Heritage Site. Both the home and the fortress of the Nasrid Sultans, 23 of whom ruled during Spain’s last Moorish dynasty between 1212 and 1492, the name ‘Alhambra’ derives from the Arabic ‘al-qala’at al-hamra’ which means ‘red castle’ – a fitting description of the sandstone buildings that appear to glow red in the late afternoon sunshine.
Set high on a hilltop overlooking the sprawling city below, the Alhambra is stunningly-romantic and a lasting testament to the genius of the Moorish engineers, who ensured the fresh water running from the melting snows of the Sierra Nevada was channelled through the palace to provide a cooling effect against the stifling summer heat.

As the warm spring sunshine makes life – and holidays – on the Costa del Sol so much more enjoyable, the improved temperatures also signal another key development for tourism on the coast – the opening of the Parque Acuatico, Mijas.
Better known simply as the ‘aqua park’, the Parque Acuatico Mijas opens on April 28th and is a great place to go for a fun day out with the family – without a grain of sand anywhere in sight! Better still, it’s very easy to reach, just a few minutes away from the CLC Club La Costa World resort by car, taxi or even on foot.
AQUA PARK MIJAS
One of the most amazing views of the Costa del Sol – covering some 300km from Gibraltar to the Sierra Nevada mountains in Granada province – is to be enjoyed from the top of the Calamorro mountain, which can be accessed via the Teleférico cable car from Benalmadena.
You can get to Benalmadena very easily by train from Fuengirola, or it’s just a short, 15-minute drive from CLC Club La Costa World. The lively town centre and busy marina both have plenty to offer for a day or evening out, but the cable car is a holiday experience all of its own!
