Bioparc Zoo in Fuengirola is one of our favourite family attractions on the Costa del Sol and, as of last Friday, it’s going to be even better! Why? Because they have opened the spectacular new habitat designed to emulate the Indo-Pacific region.
This new exhibit will take visitors on a voyage from Asia to the Americas via the islands of the South Pacific. Featuring species from Java, Borneo, Bali, the Philippines, New Guinea and the Galapagos Islands, perhaps the most impressive new inhabitant of the Park is the Komodo Dragon – the largest one in the world!

This weekend Sunset Beach Club welcomes over 100 dancers for the first edition of Costa del Jive, a week long event for fans of modern jive.
The fun starts this Sunday the 30th March with welcome drinks and canapés in the hotel’s Sala Malaga followed by a night of dancing in the Moonlight Theatre from 9:00pm to 2:00am!
There’s plenty planned for the week with participants able to enjoy daily dance classes (see below), daily activities by the pool (with a little fun thrown in!), a fancy dress fun night or just relax by the pool and soak up the spring sunshine – with a nice glass of sangria, of course! (more…)

Golf season is in full swing (excuse the pun) here on the Costa del Sol and at Sunset Beach Club, we’re fortunate to have a steady stream of golfers booked in to our hotel. That being said, we have to keep promoting our wonderful destination so this Thursday, Annemie – from our Golf Desk – will be flying up to Edinburgh for this year’s Scottish Golf Show.
We’re regular exhibitors at this popular golf show and this year is no exception. Annemie will be on stand nº B7 and will be delighted to answer any questions or queries visitors may have about our hotel and golf on the Costa del Sol. If you are at the show, make sure you stop by and say hi as we’ll be giving away a fabulous 3 night winter break at Sunset Beach Club! (more…)

Boasting an impressive total of 380 different bird species, the province of Málaga is becoming an interesting option for bird watching enthusiasts from all over Europe.
The conservation of vast natural parks and areas as well as the important bird migration taking place from August to November have contributed to the area’s popularity as an ideal destination for Bird Watching holidays.
This rich bird life and the fact that there are over 10 million tourists who travel every year to bird watch make the promotion of the area as a top Bird Watching Holiday destination a logical step for the Malaga Province Tourist Board. (more…)

According to the Spanish Secretary of State for Security, less than one out of every thousand tourists who visit Spain are victims of crime; a low figure which contributes to Spain’s popularity as a safe and popular holiday destination.
That being said, this low crime doesn’t console the unlucky few who do fall victim to petty thieves who take advantage of occasional lapses.
These unfortunate incidences usually mean having to go to the police and file a report, phone banks to cancel credit cards and contact local consulates or embassies to report stolen passports. This could mean hours spent at the local police station without a qualified translator and valuable holiday time wasted. (more…)
