Averages for fuengirola in October

Those looking for a sunny getaway should consider a holiday on Spain’s Costa del Sol- the coast of the sun. Fuengirola in particular is a top choice as its location means it’s easily accessible from Málaga airport. The popular resort town boasts five miles of white sandy beaches and many dining, drinking and accommodation options.

While October may bring chilly autumn weather back in the UK, in Fuengirola it’s most definitely still summer. Although temperatures do start to dip, the daily averages of between 15 and 23 degrees Celsius mean the area remains pleasantly warm and comfortable. A modest 2.1 inches of rainfall over around 9 days is nothing to worry about.

October is one of the most exciting times to visit Fuengirola as the biggest event in the town’s calendar, Feria de Fuengirola, brings a week of activities and partying. Kicking off the celebrations annually on October 6th is a massive fireworks display which can be seen from all over town. The festival itself lasts until October 12th and takes place at the fairground between the Fuengirola and Los Boliches train stations. Expect lots of food, drink, live music and traditional fairground rides.
