Costa del Sol lifestyle

The Costa del Sol is acknowledged worldwide as one of the most sought after holiday destinations in Southern Europe.

Nowhere else offers you so much, beaches and mountains, countryside and city, olde world charm and modern, cosmopolitan lifestyle. The climate is perfect, too, with cooling sea breezes in the summer and mild temperatures in the winter.

There are sandy beaches stretching all the way from Cabopino to Guadalmina, and encompassing the fabulous playground ports of Marbella and Puerto Banus. And all this is bordered by luxury housing developments, superbly-designed golf courses and spectacular mountain scenery.

But the "Sun Coast" is more than merely a paradise of sand and blue seas. There is a cultural life, too. There are English theatres and cinemas that you can visit. And for a real cultural treat, classic plays, concerts and ballets are frequently staged at the region's very own ampitheatre, an open-aired classical theatre enclosed by lush tropical gardens.

All this is completed by two magnificent casinos, superb entertainment complexes and a new shopping centre. There are safari, water and theme parks, and swimming pools and fitness centres.

In fact, the Costa del Sol really does have everything! It is small wonder that it has attracted the rich and famous for decades, and that many of those who have gone there on holiday have decided to stay permanently!
