For a 2021 holiday that promises sun, sea and sand, it has to be the Costa del Sol. For decades, Spain's 'Sun Coast' has been the go-to destination for vitamin D-deficient visitors looking for some fun in the sun. 300,000 ex-pats have moved to the area from Ireland and the UK, so there’s plenty of familiar faces mingling in the bars and on the beaches. The region’s appeal is obvious the minute the plane lands. After just a three hour flight, you can relax on the beach or by the pool before heading out in search of Spanish culture.
With road trips giving you the option to explore the coast or head inland to soak up the cosmopolitan atmosphere in Seville, holidays on the Costa del Sol are a great opportunity to see some of Spain’s best sights. Go on winding drives along the coast. Explore the tasty treats on offer in the tapas bars. Or hit the beach to get to work on that all-important golden tan. Whatever you’re expecting from a Costa del Sol holiday, prepare to be pleasantly surprised. This Spanish treasure’s best gems are waiting to delight you.

With national parks, beautiful beaches and welcoming waters, the Costa del Sol’s real beauty can be found in its natural scenery.

Adventurous visitors will love the range of extreme sports, water sports and activities on offer. With all that and more, the Costa del Sol offers so much more than a fortnight by the hotel pool.

Beaches
Spain’s sunshine coast has built its reputation on its beaches, and a holiday to the Costa del Sol offers beach fun by the bucketload. With so many different coastal landscapes to explore, there’s a huge variety of scenic spots to build a sandcastle or enjoy a lazy day on the shore.
On the western side of the Costa del Sol, the beaches are renowned for their fantastic facilities and provide everything you need for a fun-filled day on the beach. To the east, things get more rugged. While the west lays on the hospitality, the east’s beaches are more secluded, offering a chance to avoid the crowds and bag a spot on the sands all to yourself.
Malaga’s central beaches are close to the city centre, meaning you’re never too far away from the convenient amenities. With some of the regions best beach bars here, you can also enjoy a cocktail on the sands and the local speciality, espeto de sardinas - chargrilled sardines cooked fresh on the shore.
