Benalmádena is a charming coastal town on Spain’s Costa del Sol, just a short drive from Málaga. It’s a place where sun-soaked beaches meet lively culture, making it a popular destination for both tourists and locals.
The town is made up of three distinct areas. Benalmádena Costa is known for its golden beaches, palm-lined promenade and stylish marina filled with restaurants and bars. Arroyo de la Miel, the busy heart of the town, offers shops, cafes, and attractions like Tivoli World and Selwo Marina. Then there’s Benalmádena Pueblo, the picturesque old village nestled in the hills, with whitewashed houses, cobbled streets and panoramic sea views.
