You don't need a car here: the beach, shops, markets, restaurants, healthcare and the Cercanías train to the airport and Málaga are all within walking distance. That is why it attracts retirees, winter visitors and people who want to live in a lively town all year round. The Scandinavian community is large, with its own schools and associations.

On the Paseo Marítimo you buy frontline beach with views across the sea, while in the centre you live close to the marina and the shopping streets. Los Boliches has its own beach and train stop. If you want more space and sea views, look at Torreblanca and Carvajal, on the hills towards Benalmádena, or at Los Pacos and El Coto, on the edge of town.

With older buildings, condition is crucial: ask about recent or planned works, the lift and the community fees. Check whether the apartment has parking, as parking in the centre is difficult.

Good to know

Drive or walk a route through the neighbourhood before you choose: the distance to the station and the beach varies from street to street. Our guidance costs you nothing extra, as the seller pays the commission.
