Marbella area:
With an average of more than three hundred cloudless days a year, there are endless hours to enjoy the beaches. It is never too cold for a swim as the sea has an average temperature of eighteen degrees. In August this can often rise above twenty-four.
The Costa del Sol has an excellent network of ports, including Marbella, Puerto Banus, Estepona and La Duquesa, which support a vast array of water sports and activities. You can hire all manner of boats, jet skis, water bikes or even large leisure cruisers for the day. It has also come to be known as the Costa del Golf in recent years, as the climate and the long hours of sunshine provide a perfect opportunity in which to practise the sport on a vast selection of fine courses.
Beautiful landscapes and rural tourism:
The uneven landscape of Málaga is one of the key reasons why there is such a variety of natural environments in such a small area. The Costa del Sol is actually one of the most mountainous regions in Spain with high sierras, luxuriant valleys and streams, and thriving wetlands.
Rural tourism has experienced extraordinary growth in recent years, due to increasing environmental concerns and the interest in conserving and protecting natural areas and rural locations. These areas are ideal for excursions, mountain bike tours or hiking. However, more and more people visit these areas in order to discover the flora and fauna as well as to deepen their knowledge of the culture and the traditions.
Nightlife, Adventure and more::
The leisure industry is one of the strongest and most attractive attributes of the Costa del Sol and it is known internationally as a tourist destination that can satisfy a visitor's every expectation.

The fact that the Costa del Sol has over three hundred days of sunshine each year is worth keeping in mind when starting a round. The Sierras act as a protective screen against the affects of the colder northern winds and provide a wonderful scenic backdrop to the game.
