La Cala de Mijas has turned into a beautiful residential development from a
sleepy fishing village. It is situated between
Benalmadena and
Fuengirola on the
outskirts of
Marbella. It manages to retain its rustic Spanish charm whilst
fulfilling all the needs of its large population, many of whom are British
ex-pats.
Main Tourist Attractions
The most prominent feature of La Cala de Mijas is its accessibility to beach
areas. You can take a short walk down to one of the most beautiful and clean
beaches in Marbella. These are great for relaxing on or getting the adrenaline
going with some watersports such as windsurfing. For those who love to golf,
there are several well-known golf courses within close proximity including
Torrequebrada and Benalmadena Golf Clubs. The Torreon is an ancient watchtower
located close to the beach in La Cala de Mijas. As well as being a historical
monument, many festivals and concerts take place at the Torreon in the summer
months. For the kids, Fuengirola has a water park and a zoo.
Shopping Opportunities
There are several shops accessible on the development to keep shopaholics
content. They offer holiday essentials as well as the basics required by the
residents. You will find a range of clothing, toys, sunglasses, footwear,
souvenirs and local arts & crafts available. La Cala de Mijas also holds open
air markets on a Wednesday and Saturday. Here you will find everything from
fruit and vegetables to local pottery and plants. The nearby Benalmadena Costa
district has a shopping centre and an art gallery to purchase beautiful pictures
of the stunning local scenery. Fuengirola is home to the Miramar Shopping Centre
which has a wide range of shops to keep shopaholics happy.
Eating out and Nightlife
La Cala de Mijas has a variety of cafés, bars and restaurants onsite. As well as
traditional Spanish food such as Tapas, tortilla and paella, you will find a
wide range of international cuisine available. As there are many British ex-pat
residents, British menus are a prominent feature in many of the eateries.
Several bars and restaurants provide live entertainment including Flamenco
dancing, live music and karaoke.
Nightclubs and discos can be found in abundance in nearby Fuengirola which has a
vibrant scene into the early hours. Benalmadena Costa also has a selection of
these establishments. La Cala de Mijas is designed for a more serene and
relaxing evening.
