| Benalmadena is located 19kms from Malaga and just 9kms from Torremolinos. It is another of the Costas home-grown tourist resorts. The municipality is actually divided into three separate smaller towns. The first is Benalmadena Pueblo (village), which is located on the mountain side. It is a typical Andalusian village with heavy Moorish influences characterised by winding narrow streets and white-washed homes. It has a wide variety of amenities including museums, a castle, sports centre, shops, bars and restaurants. One of the most popular attractions in Benalmadena Pueblo is the unique Castillo de Colomares, the towns lookout castle. It represents architecture from five centuries and despite the haphazard result, it is well worth a visit.
Arroyo de la Miel is the second town and lies between Benalmadena Pueblo and Benalmadena Costa. This is where most of the population in the area live and where the majority of businesses are located. It too, has a wide variety of amenities including a sports complex, bilingual library as well as a selection of bars and restaurants. The world famous theme park, Tivoli World is also located here.
Benalmadena Costa is the third town. It was built specifically to cater for tourists and is therefore the most popular. It has an array of attractions such as its own casino, nightclubs and golf course. Benalmadena Costa has 9kms of coastline with beautiful beaches and coves. It also boasts a fully equipped marina with more than 1,000 berths. The Paseo Maritimo in Benalmadena Costa is lined with small shops and bars. At night the port in Benalmadena is illuminated with such great effect that it has been awarded the Blue Flag accolade.
