A fantastic family destination that combines beach, accessible culture and a very walkable center.

Urban beaches just a step away from the center.The historic center is mostly pedestrian, very safe to walk with children.Attractions such as Muelle Uno, the cable car or the nearby Bioparc Fuengirola.
The heat in summer can be too much for the little ones at midday.
