Living in Torremar
Torremar is a small residential area on the hills of Benalmádena, in the La Capellanía area and close to Altos del Higuerón. It suits people who want peace without daily life being far away. Many homes face south and west, with panoramic views over the sea and the bay of Fuengirola, and in the evening you watch the sun drop behind the Mijas mountains. You hardly see tourists here: residents are mainly permanent homeowners and second-home owners.
Daily life
A big advantage over many hillside areas: from parts of Torremar you can walk on the flat to the supermarkets, cafés, restaurants and bus stop of Altos del Higuerón. For bigger shopping trips, schools and doctors you drive a few minutes to Fuengirola or Arroyo de la Miel. Carvajal beach and station are at the foot of the hill, the Reserva del Higuerón sports club is close by, and via the A-7 the airport is about fifteen minutes away.
Homes, prices and what to check
