The mild climate of Marbella has long attracted tourists to its sandy beaches, and the reputation for affluence, along with tales of intrigue from a long and varied past, have done little to dissuade the influx of peoples from many nations

The Sierra Blanca rises to over 1200 metres to the northwest of Marbella with a further mountain range, Sierra Bermeja, rising to over 1400 metres, behind that. The net effect is shelter from the northwest, and from the land breezes from that direction that are then mostly diverted down the Rio Verde and Rio Guadalmina valleys to the west, and the Rio Fuengirola valley to the east.

Full Parking

Arranging parking at any airport can be an absolute nightmare, but this this is particularly true of Malaga Airport, the fourth largest airport in Spain.

On-site parking can be very expensive with questionable security, and unless you know the airport well, you might have a fair trek with your luggage before you reach departures. That said, leaving your vehicle with one of the myriad of off-site parking firms is not without its pitfalls. Many parking firms have local offices where you might leave your vehicle, only to have them move it some distance away in your absence. You have no idea where it’s been, who’s been in it or what they were up to in there! (more…)
