Costa Del Sol Beach for October

El Cristo Beach in Estepona gets incredible busy during the peak summer months, making October a great time to go. The wind regularly blows in over this region from the east, but thanks to the natural rounded shape of the bay, this cove is always protected from breezy conditions. This beach was awarded with Blue Flag certification in 2015, which is testament to its cleanliness and the high quality of its facilities that include sun loungers, parasols, toilets, showers, water sports and life guard service. The dark sandy beach gently slopes into the calm waters, although there are some steep shelves out if you venture into the deep so watch out. The harbour on one side of the bay acts as a wave breaker and ensures the sea is almost always completely still. There are a couple of bars directly on the beach which serve icy drinks and basic snacks. The prices are a little steep, but that's what you expect for a place like this.

Playa de Los Alamos is the quietest beach in Torremolinos, although it can get absolutely packed in July and August which, again, makes October the perfect time to go. This beach is made up of fine golden sand and offers all the basic beach amenities, such as sun loungers, parasols, toilets and showers. Although the sea is usually calm, some visitors have reported seeing jellyfish here, so keep an eye out before you go swimming. This long beach is backed by a beautiful promenade which features benches, palm trees, cafes, bars and restaurants, making it a great place for a leisurely walk.

Bars and Restaurants

Zena in Fuengirola is an Italian restaurant which doesn't settle for just simple pizza and pasta dishes you can order anywhere. This eatery prides itself on superb service and top quality contemporary Italian dishes, such as mushroom risotto, grilled veal, garlic chilli prawn pasta and peppercorn steaks, alongside homemade desserts like coffee ice cream and panna cotta. Diners can choose between the offerings of the a la carte menu, or opt for the value-for-money set menu.

For something more typically Spanish, make a reservation at La Fuente. Located in the historical centre of Benalmadena, this Spanish restaurant is set inside an old rustic house and offers a seasonal menu which regularly changes according to which local produce is at its best at the time. In addition to the a la carte and set three-course menus, daily specials are also available. To complement the food, there is a superb wine menu with local and international red, white and rose wines, cavas, champagnes, beers and spirits.

Siempre Asi in Malaga is one of the best places to go in the city if you're in the mood for a dance. This cool club offers low lighting and plenty of space to get your groove on. If you're not up for a dance, the spacious environment, heated music and ambient lighting create a great atmosphere to mix with the locals and international visitors which regularly flock to the club. Latino is the music theme here, with rumba, salsa and rock music also frequently played. 

Declared the coolest bar in Spain, Boal's Ice Bar in Benalmadena is the very first ice bar to appear in the Costa del Sol. The sun may be blazing outside, but inside this bar, everything is made out of ice including the walls, the seats, the sculptures, the glasses and even the bar itself. Since the ice bar is -14⁰C, you can only stay in there for a short period of time, but not to worry. When you start shivering, you can head into the outside igloo bar or coolers disco to continue the fun and warm up.

Things to do in the Costa Del Sol in October

Awarded the title of Best Marina in the World on two occasions by the British magazine International Property, Benalmadena's Marina is one of the liveliest places in the resort. Here you'll find 40+ international restaurants, 20+ bars and nightclubs and around 25 shops selling everything from souvenirs and perfumes to electronics and clothes. All this in addition to an aquarium, boat hire kiosks, water sport centres and sailing club the list is practically endless. Even if you don't want to spend any money, the marina is a great place to enjoy a stroll in the sunshine and admire the flash boats (some of which are up to 6 metres long!) and soak up the sun on the Blue Flag beach.

If you're travelling with kids, Playa Mini Golf España is a superb family-friendly activity. Situated in Benalmadena, this mini golf course has a great variety of easy, medium-difficulty and challenging holes, making it fun for the whole family. There is plenty of seating and parasols for tired adults who just want to watch the kids play, as well as a small café-bar which serves ice-cold drinks and basic snacks. With set price menu deals which include a burger or filled baguette, drink and round of mini golf, Playa Mini Golf España provides great value for money, whatever your budget.
