Give yourself a holiday in Calahonda to swim on the Costa del Sol and enjoy that peaceful rest that you so deserve.

Calahonda is a tourist town that belongs to the municipality of Mijas in the province of Malaga. Would you like to spend a few days of absolute tranquillity and relaxation on the Costa del Sol? Then check out our cheap holidays to Calahonda, choose your dates, put on your swimsuit and put up your feet!

Calahonda, halfway between the towns of Fuengirola and Marbella, owes its name to Calahonda Beach, a semi-urban beach with golden sand that is almost 3 miles long. The average temperature between June and September is around 23 degrees, so how can you resist? Pack your bag with the book you are reading, along with your sun cream and towel and get ready to spend a day in the sun.

Calahonda Beach is next to Cabopino Beach and is a bit more isolated. Thanks to its moderate waves and scarce occupancy in high season, it is an ideal beach for families. In addition, nudists will also find there is a specific area for them. When night falls, you can take a pleasant walk around the nearby Cabopino Port.

On another point, it would not make sense to visit the province of Malaga and not try its delicious cuisine. When hunger strikes, sit on the terrace that most appeals to you and ask for white garlic soup with Muscat grapes, a cold soup made of almonds, bread and garlic that is accompanied by the typical Malaga grapes or a gazpachuelo, a soup made of water, bread and egg white. What better way to complete our holiday packages in Calahonda?

To get to Calahonda, fly to Malaga-Costa del Sol Airport, less than 25 miles away. You can rent a car at the airport to move freely around Calahonda, Mijas and the entire province of Malaga or rely on intercity buses. In that case, you will first have to go from the airport to the city of Malaga. Be that as it may, what is clear is that you will know how to make the most of our trips to Calahonda.
