Fuengirola Area Guide

Crystal Shore Properties has apartments, villas and townhouses for sale all along the Costa del Sol, including in the well-known tourist destination of Fuengirola. Only 25km from Malaga International Airport, Fuengirola was one of the first package holiday locations of the early 70s. Then a tiny fishing village, it has grown to be one of the busiest towns on the Costa del Sol. Fuengirola is easily accessible by road, rail or bus, this cosmopolitan town still has a traditional Spanish heart.

Alongside English managed pubs and restaurants there are some wonderful Spanish tapas bars and restaurants in the winding backstreets of Fuengirola. Shopping is completely diverse here, from small boutiques to the large shopping centres on the edge of town, catering for all nationalities.

The five miles of Fuengirola's sandy beachfront is of course one of its main attractions. Restaurants and bars follow the promenade all the way along the back of the beach and for the kids, entertainment is never far away, with pedalos, banana boats, waterskiing, jet skiing and more. Kids are in fact extremely well catered for in Fuengirola, with the Fuengirola Water Park, Fuengirola Zoo (now known as Fuengirola Biopark), and the Dinosaur Theme Park… the list goes on.

Fuengirola and its surrounding areas, such as Los Boliches, Torreblancaand Torrequebrada are very popular places to buy property, particularly because of the close proximity to the airport. Crystal Shore Properties have some great apartments and villas for sale in this area – some in the hills behind in the more peaceful areas, or in the heart of the town – but always with Spanish and International amenities close by.
