A 15 minute drive along the coast road takes you to La Canada, a huge shopping mall and multi screen cinema.

Also in easy walking distance is a typically Spanish restaurant and bar, Venta del Golf, where you can sit out on a huge veranda to eat in the summer, or indoors by an open fire on chilly evenings.

In the centre of Riviera del Sol (about 15 minutes walk) there are several bars, cafes, restaurants, supermarket, beach shops, cash machine and a convenience store open every day until 2 a.m., and also a pretty little park dedicated to Princess Diana. Another five minutes walking brings you to Calypso where there is a lovely old building called El Zoco which houses a good variety of shops built around open patio gardens with bars & restaurants. There is also a medical centre, several pharmacies & a dentist (!) . The beach at Riviera is completely unspoilt, with vegetation growing above the high water line, & rocky outcrops in the sand. Nearby La Cala and Cabopino both have wide sandy beaches with all the usual facilities. Cabopino has a beautiful marina with a good choice of restaurants & La Cala also has a twice weekly market on Wednesdays & Fridays. All the amenities are open all year round.

Things to do: a fascinating day trip, high in the mountains is Mijas, a thriving town in the 9th century which still has walls from the old Moorish fort. There are interesting museums, art galleries and good quality craft shops selling gorgeous items by highly respected artists and craftsmen, as well as a lovely walk around the old walls with spectacular views over the surrounding countryside. The town offers a huge variety of places to eat as well as many mediaeval buildings to admire, and a free flamenco show in the central square every Wednesday at 12. Further afield, there is the Alhambra palace complex in Granada, the old city of Seville, and Gibraltar with its huge gun, caves, cable car (or steps for the energetic) to the top, and dolphin safaris in Gibraltar bay. The area has several aquaparks, zoos, a crocodile park, aquarium, equestrian dressage displays and flamenco shows. The more adventurous might like to drive on to Algeciras and get the ferry across to Tangiers in North Africa.
