Travel Guides > Spain > Costa del Sol > Costa del Sol Holidays

The Costa del Sol (Sun Coast) is a well-developed tourist area extending along the entire Mediterranean coast of Andalucia, the southernmost province of Spain. Covering over 100 miles, the Costa del Sol includes 24 fine sandy beaches, where the average water temperature is 64ºF (18ºC), and picturesque towns have abundant tourist amenities, resorts and high-rise hotels.  Several large resorts, such has Torremolinos, Malaga and Marbella are dotted along the coastline with a backdrop of mountains along most of its length. The most popular resort town on the Costa del Sol is Torremolinos, which retains some elements of traditional Spain, although most main streets are now pedestrianised-thoroughfares filled with souvenir shops and ice-cream parlours. Marbella, Benalmadena and Puerto Banus are the up-market areas with all the five star hotels.
