More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You step off the coastal road and the air changes: salt-laden breezes give way to sun-warmed stone and the compact alleys of Mijas Pueblo climbing the hillside above the Costa del Sol. White-washed facades flare with painted pots, barred windows hold potted geraniums, and a narrow lane funnels you toward a plaza where life slows and views sharpen toward the Mediterranean.
