water, there are a number of scuba diving companies

Hot Air Ballooning, Climbing, Walking, and Petanque.
Within a short drive there is so much to do and see
including the traditional Bull Fights that are still
held regularly in Mijas Village, Fuengirola and
Benalmadena. In the winter months the Sierra Nevada is
just a 2 hour drive, if you leave at 8.00am, you will be

play area, ideal if you have children. Whether you want
a zoo, wildlife park, dolphin safari, sealife centre or

RESTAURANTS
This rough guide has been produced to cover the
surrounding area. It is said, if you ate out breakfast,
lunch and dinner for 5 years you could not cover 25% of
the restaurants in this area. The vast selection of
bars, cafés, restaurants, tapas houses and bodegas cover
the whole of Mijas Costa.
There certainly is something for everybody. Fine dining,
traditional Spanish cuisine, food from every nationality
you can imagine, in truth sometimes it can be quite
difficult to decide where to go. From Torremolinos to
Marbella you will find a selection of Chiringuitos that
serve fresh fish on a daily basis. The smell of the
olive wood burners on the beach is mouth watering.
Whether it be the fresh sardines, doradas and sea bass
the the results are all the same – excellent!
Some have specialities such as salt baked fish,
boquerones ala limone or paella. It certainly is very
relaxing way to enjoy a sunny day looking out to sea. In
this section most restaurants have been recommended or
tried by somebody within our community. If you have any
recommendations, please send a brief write up on the
restaurant along with a picture and we will gladly add
it to this section.
Most of the restaurants are very busy, so it is highly
recommended that you book in advance to avoid
disappointment. view
