The second is a coastal resort, very popular with the British, offering excellent beach and golfing facilities.

Mijas has widespread appeal and is very popular with the British. It has something for everyone. Families, especially those with young children, enjoy the beaches and the warm Mediterranean. There is plenty to entertain couples of all ages and golfers arrive in their droves to experience the superb golfing facilities.

When To Go To Mijas

Although Mijas is a year round holiday venue, the summer is the most popular time to go, with guaranteed sunshine and warm seas. Many tourists come out of season to escape from the dreary British winter.

Mijas - The Place

Mijas Pueblo must be one of the prettiest villages on the Mediterranean coast. Beneath the pine covered lowlands of the Sierra Mijas, the white houses with their tiled roofs cling to the hillside. The village, seven kilometres from the sea and 430 metres above it, is a labyrinth of steep and narrow cobbled streets which eventually give way to steps as you near the highest point of the village. The higher you climb the better the view and, to reward you for your exertions, the lower the price of food and drink. It is possible to explore the lower parts of the village by donkey taxi or by the slightly grander horse and carriage. The Muralla Gardens, always a blaze of colour no matter what the season, are the perfect place to relax in the shade.

Local crafts people and artists sell the results of their labour in the village shops.

Mijas Costa is a smart resort with twelve kilometres of wonderful sandy beaches, La Cala being a particular favourite with both locals and tourists. Water sports include jet skiing, water skiing and para-surfing.

The promenade is the place to be in the evening when the Flamenco dancers give performances and music is played.

The golf course has two eighteen hole layouts giving magnificent views of the mountains and the sea.

A Mijas holiday offers a marvellous climate, wonderful food and good all-round entertainment.

Mijas Nightlife

Costa Mijas also has many gift and souvenir shops and for those who need more there is the renowned market at Fuengirola only a short bus ride away.

Mijas Eating

Mijas Pueblo, with its many small family run restaurants is the place to go for traditional Andalusian food.

There are of course a huge variety of Spanish fish restaurants reflecting the importance of fish in the local diet. Wines are both good and inexpensive.
