tips & insights
Costa
del Sol
compared with
Costa Brava
During the peak summer season, the Costa del Sol falls victim to tourist crush. The same is true for the Costa Brava, Spain's other internationally famous beach resort area, which lies in northeastern Spain.
However, the Costa del Sol is far more sophisticated than the Costa Brava. The latter can be somewhat tacky, rowdy and boorish.
Daytrips
Rushed for time? The Costa del Sol is strategically located for day tripping. Local tour organizations can dash you to established travel destinations like Cordoba, Gibraltar, Granada, Seville, and even Tangiers, Morocco.
