BENALMADENA TRAVEL GUIDE
Costa del Sol, SpainIf you are looking for a holiday hotel or apartment in Benalmadena, the following information may help by giving you an overview on the resort.
Benalmadena is made up of three different districts. The main tourist centre is the Cosmopolitan Benalmadena Costa, which is focused around three main entertainment areas – 24-Hr Square, Bonanza Square and the Marina, all offering endless things to see and do all day long. The large Marina handles over 1,000 yachts and boats of all types.
Benalmadena Pueblo is the old part of the town, which sits further inland, tucked into the foothills of the Sierra de Mijas. It is the original Andalucian White Village, still full of rural charisma. The town offers a completely different contrast to the hectic, busy pace of the coastal strip, with its narrow streets, winding alleyways and terracotta-tiled roofs sitting on top of white-painted houses. In the main square, Plaza de Espana, there is a statue, which has become the symbol of Benalmadena - a young girl offering water in an upturned shell.
Half way between the coastline and the Old Town lies the main residential area of Arroyo de la Miel [which means “Stream of Honey”. This district is a fashionable, busy area, with hundreds of apartment blocks and many clubs, restaurants and bars.
Benalmadena boasts 9km of beaches to the west of the new marina, some of which are man made, some are sandy and some stony.
Benalmadena’s new port is becoming one of the most stylish along the coast with its shops, bars and restaurants and also has a small aquarium to visit.
