Costa del Sol
The Costa del Sol includes about 300 km of the
Spanish
Mediterranean
Coast belonging to the Provinces of Granada,
Malaga and
Cadiz . Recently, the
Granada
Province coastline was redesignated as the Costa Tropical.
 It is protected from the northern winds by a mountain chain which sometimes reaches down to the edge of the sea. This privileged coast consists of a series of large beaches, coves half-hidden among cliffs, sports harbours and fishing grounds. The mild climate, scant rainfall and the sea breeze produce a semitropical vegetation with frequent palm-trees, cypresses, oleander and hibiscus.
The proximity of very different countryside - mountains, valleys full of orchards and the sea - is undoubtedly one of the main attractions of this coast, which has all the attractive features of the Mediterranean scenery and culture.
