To be honest, we’re a little baffled as to why our amazing city doesn’t get busier in the Winter; But that may just be what makes it so appealing to visit in the quieter months (November, December, January and February)!

Don’t forget we’re privileged to get more than 320 days of sunshine per year here on the Costa del Sol!
Whilst there are many things to do in Benalmadena in Winter, we’ve summarised some of our favourites for you.
Here goes…
