Areas we cover
Fuengirola · Málaga
Fuengirola is a coastal town with a long seafront, a dense centre and districts such as Los Boliches, Carvajal, Torreblanca and El Boquetillo. A good share of residents come from northern Europe and live here all year or for long stretches, so many homes run in two languages. The Cercanías line links to Málaga and the airport, which makes hourly work in different spots practical.
