| The first stop along the Costa del Sol, only 6km from Mαlaga airport is Torremolinos. Torremolinos is the town, which led the tourist boom of the 1950΄s and 60΄s. Only fifty years ago, Torremolinos was just a small fishing village. It has now become a massive resort area with rows of high-rise apartments and hotels. As the original resort town, Torremolinos is geared to giving people a good time, and if thats what you are looking for, there are few places on the coast with as many bars and restaurants.
Torremolinos is predominantly a family resort aimed at the package holiday business. More than 70% of the visitors are British and English is the accepted language. Throughout the summer, the town hall hosts an unlimited number of free events including festivals of music, dance and jazz as well as volleyball and football competitions. In recent years, the town hall has invested heavily in the area, creating a new promenade along the seafront, which perfectly complements the charm of the old town.
There are two principle beaches in Torremolinos, both long and sandy. There is a wide selection of shops and the prices here are comparatively cheaper due to the intense competition in the town. Very little of the Torremolinos old town remains, but there are remnants of a fourteen century Moorish watchtower. Torremolinos is not for the culture seekers, but for beaches, nightclubs, bars, restaurants and shops, Torremolinos is one of the best spots in Andalucia.
