In the afternoon of Sunday 5th January, kids all over Spain will be lining the streets of all the main towns and cities to watch the traditional Three Kings Parades.
This is the highlight of the Christmas festivities and a must-watch for anyone visiting at this magical time of year. Many of our guests like to venture into town and watch the colourful parades so we’ve put together this blog post highlighting some of our favourite processions with timetables and the exact locations of each. All you have to do is choose the most appealing to you! (more…)
Although not the high season here in Benalmadena, Christmas time offers lots of interesting things to keep the whole family entertained.
Our guests often ask us for recommendations on things to do at this time of year so we’ve decided to put together this list which includes activities and specific places you can visit during the holidays.

From Thursday 29th August to Sunday 1st September 2024, Benalmádena Pueblo (the old town) will host the latest edition of its Arabian Market (Zoco), an event which once again returns to the town’s summer cultural programme.
The Arabian Market will be larger this year, running from Calle Real to Plaza del Aguacil. Aimed to promote the town’s beauty and charm, the town hall hopes this unique event will once again attract tourists from all over the Coast.
The ‘Virgen del Carmen‘ celebrations take place in Benalmadena Marina this weekend (from Saturday).
The Benalmadena town hall has prepared various events which will take place on Saturday 13th, Sunday 14th, Monday 15th, and Tuesday 16th July, including a wonderful procession through the streets of Benalmádena Costa in which the fishermen will carry their ‘Stella Maris’ to the Marina. She’ll be lifted aboard a boat and paraded along the Benalmadena coastline (weather permitting).
If you’ve got some good binoculars, a great place to watch this is from the terrace in our Panorama Bar here at Sunset Beach Club or from the promenade just in front of the hotel. (more…)
The San Juan Fair in Arroyo de la Miel is back again this year with a full programme of events which kicks of this Sunday 23rd June!
This year we’ll be able to enjoy the amazing firework display on San Juan night (23rd June) as well as the traditional bonfires all along the beaches. The popular ‘Casetas’ are back in the main fairground every night as are all the fairground attractions and live music concerts. The day fair will also provide hours of entertainment with live music and dancing featuring local artists.
On Saturday 18th May 2024, the promenade in front of Sunset Beach Club in Benalmádena will become the meeting point for another edition of the Cudeca Walkathon.
Every year, we here at Sunset Beach Club provide our unconditional support to this fantastic event which aims to raise awareness for the incredible work the Cudeca Foundation does for Cancer patients here on the Costa del Sol. The funds raised during the Walkathon also allow for the continued palliative care the Cudeca Hospice offers to more than 1400 cancer patients and their families free of charge.
