Regardless if you want to enjoy the beach, hiking in the mountains, tropical climate, long sandy beaches and nice warm nights or even skiing, Costa del Sol has it all! Spanish people: Spaniards are very outgoing people and know how to enjoy life. They love to eat, drink and party. A Spanish person is a loyal friend and has strong family ties. They are proud of their country and foreigners who have chosen to live here are much appreciated, not just because of their good economy, but also because of their good taste when choosing Spain! You will appreciate making friends in Spain. Spain is a feast of delights. Lovely sunshine, day in and day out. Often recurring festivi- ties, fiestas, are symbols of the positive outlook on life. The mountain villages, with their whitewashed houses are so picturesque and give you the romantic feeling of being frozen in time almost expecting to see a horse and carriage coming around the corner on the cobbled street. And let us not forget the almost endless sandy, white beaches, surrounded by lovely palm trees with their leaves rustling in the warm breeze on a hot Mediterranean afternoon. An inviting landscape next to the boulevards where you don’t just walk, but stroll. 4 Alamo_Magasin_2015_EN_20s.indd 4 2016-02-15 10:59:41 Costa del Sol – A World famous Andalusian coastline Costa del Sol is the part of the An- Torre del Mar, Málaga, which is the dalusian coastline which ranges capital of the province, Torremo- from Nerja in the East to Manilva linos, Benalmadena, Fuengirola, in the West.
