Book cheap holidays to the Costa del Sol, which stretches for more than 150 kilometres along the coast of Andalucía in southern Spain and is one of Europe’s favourite summer holiday hot spots. The popularity of the Costa del Sol is largely down to the fabulous climate which sees on average 325 days of sunshine a year. In addition to the climate, the Costa del Sol boasts magnificent clean sandy beaches, great watersports and swanky resorts such as Marbella and Puerto Banus. The Costa del Sol is also a golfer’s paradise with more than 60 courses along the coast and a perfect climate that lends perfectly to year round golf. There are also the luxury Marbella hotels and the hotels in Puerto Banus where a bit of celebrity spotting is a favoured past time. Families are well catered for in the Costa del Sol with resorts such as Fuengirola, Mijas and Benalmadena offering affordable accommodation and plenty of activities to keep the children and parents happy.

The beaches on the Costa del Sol provide both hustle and bustle and serenity with beaches to suit all visitors to the coast. There are beaches for families that provide entertainment for the children in the form of activities and play areas, or beaches for those sun worshipers that want that all over golden tan. There are also some beach clubs that provide access to a swimming pool and then there are the beach-side restaurants and the fishing boats that cook the tastiest barbequed sardines.

For those looking to do a bit of shopping then the Costa del Sol is great. Puerto Banus is a shopper’s paradise with the department store El Corte Ingles, the exclusive Marina Banus and the numerous designer boutiques. Marbella has plenty to offer as well with the streets in Old Town lined with small chic boutiques. Nearer to the airport there is also a complex called Plaza Mayor that provides more than just shopping, with its cinema bars and restaurants as well.

The different resorts along the Costa del Sol have their own distinct flavours which provide holidaymakers with variety and choice when deciding where to holiday in southern Spain. Areas like Fuengirola are lively buzzing resorts with sandy beaches and tree-lined promenades, plentiful nightlife and a god choice of bars and restaurants. There are also many kinds of family friendly attractions such as the Water Park and Fuengirola Zoo. Then you have the glitzy resorts of Marbella and Puerto Banus, Spain’s answer to St. Tropez, with some of the finest hotels, boutique shopping, beaches and beach clubs and fine dining. The nightlife in Puerto Banus is buzzing with great restaurants, bars and nightclubs and a night-time stroll around the marina is an experience in itself.

With so much variety and great weather it is no wonder the Costa del Sol is still a firm favourite with British holiday makers and whether you are going to your own holiday home and just require flights to Malaga or you are looking for a family holiday in the sun then The Internet Traveller have the perfect option for you.
