Fuengirola Travel Guide

Basically a ribbon development, Fuengirola sprawls for 6½ mls along the beach, extending 1½ mls inland at its widest point. The resort has the feel of a mini-Benidorm, with thickly spread, high-rise buildings catering for the vast influx of mainly British tourists. However, it still boasts a large fishing fleet, and the narrow, generally busy coast road is pleasant enough, stretching the length of the beach. The bustling central tourist-orientated area covers 4 mls of beach front which is roughly divided by the marina and extends rather chaotically inland for ½ ml; city-centre driving is certainly not for the faint of heart or those with a fear of parallel parking.Fuengirola is situated on Spain’s S coast, roughly midway between Torremolinos (to the E) and Marbella (to the W). It is 19 mls SW of Malaga; 16 mls SW of Malaga airport.
