Beaches, relaxation, shopping and delicious fried fish: Mijas Costa is the ideal fishing village for you to enjoy a dream holiday on the coast.

Mijas Costa has more than seven miles of coastline made up of pristine beaches that you’ll be aching to explore. All that swimming might get you hungry, but not to worry, because its hundreds of bars and restaurants are perfect for enjoying the area’s traditional fried fish, or pescaíto frito. Love shopping? You’ll also find many amazing shopping centres.

Mijas Costa, also known as "Las Lagunas", is a Spanish town in the Mijas area, in the province of Málaga. The best way to get there is to fly to Málaga Airport and then drive to Mijas, a journey that shouldn't take longer than thirty minutes.

Finding accommodation for your holidays in Mijas Costa couldn’t be easier: hotels, hostels, camping sites, apartments, rural accommodation, and more. There are options to suit all budgets and with all the necessary conveniences.

Playa La Cala (Las Doradas) is the main attraction of this lovely fishing village, a beach where you can go for a relaxing swim and work on your tan under the Andalusian sun from May until well into October you can usually rely on it to be out in force. If you prefer swimming pools to beaches, be sure to visit the Mijas water park, also highly recommended if you’re holidaying with children.

Our cheap trips to Mijas Costa are the perfect excuse to visit Mijas Pueblo, just a short quarter of an hour’s walk away on foot. There you can visit the Museum of Miniatures, where you will find such curios as a depiction of The Last Supper on a grain of rice. The Sierra viewpoint is also a must-see, and on the clearest days you can see all the way to Gibraltar and even the coast of Morocco. The town’s gardens and the viewpoint on the town walls, La Muralla, are also beautiful, and are the remains of the ancient fortress where this town was located.

The package deals to Mijas Costa are the perfect opportunity to take a break from the stresses of daily life and enjoy a holiday in the purest sense of the word: sun, beach, good food, fun and tranquillity.
