Mijas village is filled with quintessential cobbles streets which wind there way through the pueblo and make it one of the most popular ‘pueblos blancos’. On summer evenings there is nothing better than taking a stroll to the church and looking down on the coast. You simply relax as a gentle breeze wafts through the balmy air. This is exactly what millions think of when they imagine of Mijas. Seriously, it takes some beating!

Life in Mijas is a pleasure for most of the year, however during the summer months, parking can become a nightmare if you don’t have your own reserved spot. The town welcomes thousands of tourists, who arrive in rented cars or on bus trips. Residents who are not involved in tourism, can find this a little overwhelming.

Both Malaga and Marbella are only 30 minutes away. Gibraltar is a little further west and is about an hours drive. The beach towns of Mijas Costa which were once small fishing villages, have grown into primary destinations in their own right. The Mijas area, is an extremely popular place for residents too call home. As is Fuengirola, which is technically not Mijas Costa, but sits directly on the beach, below Mijas.

La Cala de Mijas is the original fishing village on the beach, once just a collection of fisherman’s cottages, it is now a thriving town. Through the years it has grown to be on both sides of the main road connecting Fuengirola and Marbella. La Cala de Mijas is a lively beachside town and very popular with young families. Torrenueva lies at the west end of La Cala de Mijas and borders Miraflores.

El Chaparral lies to the east of La Cala de Mijas, meeting at the area of Los Claveles which borders La Cala town. El Chaparral has a great golf course and is home to a number of pool villas with sea views. The area was for many years, home to onnly a small number of homes on the hillside. In recent years this has changed immensely, as developers bought up the precious sea view land behind Playa Marina. This area which borders El Faro to the east and E Chaparral to the west is now booming. There is now a huge choice of villas, townhomes and villas under construction in these neighbourhoods which could soon be it’s own town.

Travelling west from La Cala de Mijas you will find Miraflores, Riviera, Calypso and Calahonda. Although they are separate they have, over the years, amalgamated into what could be considered their own town. Once popular with the international and expat market, they are now a vibrant blend of foreigners and Spanish locals.  You can find beachfront, mountainside and valley apartments, townhomes and villas in all price ranges.
