Costa Daily News

The Costa Del Sol is comprised of approximately 300kms of the Spanish Mediterranean coast belonging to the Provinces of Granada, Malaga and Cadiz. Recently, the Granada Province coastline was redesignated as the 'Costa Tropical.' It is protected from the northern winds by a mountain chain which, in parts reaches down to the coast forming spectacular cliffs.

This privileged coast consists of a series of large beaches, coves, half-hidden among cliffs, sports harbours and fishing grounds. The warm climate, scant rainfall and the sea breeze produce semi-tropical vegetation with frequent palm trees, cypresses, oleander and hibiscus. The main attractions of this coastline are the variety of natural environments including mountains, valleys and, of course, the Mediterranean Sea itself.

The Costa Del Sol has so much to offer, it is hadly surprising that an ever-increasing number of people are seeking to establish a home here and, for many, the climate is the chief deciding factor. The winters are mild and the summers hot without become oppressive. Whether you see the jet set lifestyle of Marbella and Puerto Banus, the peace of a country retreat, or the Moorish grandeur of Granada, the Costa Del Sol has it all, and more.
