Reasons to visit the Costa del Sol in April

The Costa del Sol is one of Spain’s most popular tourist destinations attracting visitors from all over the world. We all know that the busy Easter and Summer holiday periods are the most popular with hotels at full capacity and local businesses, bars and restaurants busier than ever.

Why visit Benalmadena in September (Plus Our List of Things to Do & Places to See)

Benalmadena in September

Visiting Benalmadena during the busy summer months – July & August – can be stressful. Too many people, too much traffic, too many queues, it’s too hot… stress!
