Answer 1

Hey!

I live down in Sabinilas which is the last town of malaga.

At the moment it is absolutely boiling. be very careful in the sun, im saying this and i have very tanned skin and love to sun bathe. last weekend i went to the beach and got burnt in just one day and i was wearing factor 12.

You really dont want to look like a tomato, which is what some of the girls look like after a day in the sun.

For a great beach day head down to tarifa. Its about 1 hours drive from marbella. and it has the whitest sand in spain. theres is also a waterpark in fuengirola and mijas. in mijas ther is also tivoli world which is kinda like a mini amusement park.another set of good places to go are selwo marina, selwo aventura and selwo cablecar. for more info on any of these places just google the names or add me and send me a message.

There are many spanish villages alone the coast. if you are looking for something more exciting then go to Puerto Banus, in Marbella, This is a very expensive port. Here you will find everything high class from Lamborghinis to Stretch Hummers to private boats the isze of a block of flats.

Also every night of july and august in Puerto Banus there is a market in the square. this market is worth going to, there are some lovely thing there.

I've been! It's wonderful there. It's not quite as nice as the Caribbean's beautiful beaches, but I'd say it's comparable to the beaches in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. We were in Costa del Sol (Málaga) in June for a few days. I was actually on a 24-day long school trip, and this was one of the stops. It was a bit touristy... but I'd go back for sure. It felt like Mexico to me for some reason. Seemed to lack that wonderful Spanish culture. As for the sun... well, "sol" is Spanish for "sun," and the sun is sure to be out. And yes... you will tan. After the first day, when I took off my swim suit back at the hotel, I was stunned at my tan lines. Probably the best tan of my life already after just that one day. Be SURE to wear sun screen though, as the sun is very intense down there. There are not any water parks in Málaga, but there are lots of good restaurants on the beach! Eat paella. Drink sangria. :)

I live on the Costa Del Sol and the weather has been on average for weeks at about 33c. Yesterday it was 39c. The heatwave is set to continue.

Be careful in the sun even though you tan easily. I'm brown all over and I'm used to the sun, but I still have to watch myself because the sun is so strong.

You didn't say where you are going. THe Costa Del Sol stretches for about 150 kilometres from Estepona to Nerja. Be assured. There will be loads of everything to do wherever you go.

Enjoy.
