Benalmádena
is devided in three zones. The Benalmádena
Costa with its 9km of beaches with(the Paseo and
the beautiful harbour. And the second part, the
old valley (Benalmádena Pueblo), from which
you can have a panoramic view over the coast,
and the third part between the mountain and the
coast (Arroyo de la Miel). Benalmádena
has a complete area of 26,58 km and is situated
280m above the sea level.
Those who don´t want to lay all days on
the beach can find Restaurants and Bars directly
by the main street, which is also the centre.
Above
the main street from Fuengirola to Torremolinos
is the centre with shops and it offers also a
railway station. Driving in direction to the mountains,
you will pass the amusement park Tívoli,
and then you reach the old village. To walk is
perhaps not recomendable. Better to drive with
the car, because it is a long way up to the village.
The
village-street is well built and a lot of buildings
were wonderful redeveloped.

The
alleys and places of the village Benalmádena
show the typical andalusian charm.
You
should spend a full moon night on top of the village
near the village church Santo Domingo in the gardens
"Jardines del Muro" to enjoy the stunning
views. It is indeed worthwhile!
Castillo
de Colomares, a phantastic built monument as honour
of Columbus should also be visited. You can daily
see birds, specially eagles.
The village offers also beautiful places with
fountains and Bistros to relax as well as a riding
club and a Multi-Sport-Centre with a grass field
for different kinds of sport, with swimming pool
and other possibilities of sport.

has a rich roman and phonetically past. The museum
was renovated and special furnished. But don´t
expect a big museum. Here you can also get informations
about Benalmádena.
The
town hall (Ayuntamiento) is situated directly to
the main street of the village. The visitor will
be shown a demanding ambience like in most of the
town halls in Spain. The Patio is wonderful constructed
and with lighting. Through the glass dome sinlight

The
market place with its marble fountains offers also
a Restaurant to spend a little time. The old village
is beautiful and clean. To make a visit... it´s
worth it.
