The Area of La Cala de Mijas

---

A former fishing village now a lovely town with many restaurants, bars and shops which cater for everybody. 

One of the best and least crowded beach of Costa del Sol is very clear. Good cafes are along the beachfront and great Spanish food is easy to come by. The whole town has a nice atmosphere and family vibe!

Market is on Saturday and Wednesday.

If it’s night life you are looking for, you have Olivias, which serves great food, live singers and great cocktails!

Too much to list it all, but here are some ideas:

1. Aquapark, Mijas 
2. Crocodile Park, Torremolinos
3. Costa Water Park, Fuengirola
4. Dolphin spotting, Fuengirola
5. Castillo de Colomares (fairy-tale looking castle)
6. Butterfly Park, Benamaldena
7. Sea Life Aquarium, Benamaldena
8. Pindongos  treetop adventure park, Villanueva del Trabuco.

It is easy to organize a day trip to the following destinations:

1. Ronda. Take a train ride from San Roque to Ronda and visit  beautiful Ronda.
2. Tangiers, Morocco 
3. Gibraltar  (better to park the car in the Spanish side and just walk into Gibraltar to avoid traffic) - don't forget to take your passport !
4. Alhambra (need to buy ticket in advance!) and Granada.
5. Nerja Caves, Nerja (really beautiful caves, must see!)
