main attractions of la cala de mijas
As with all of the locations along the Costa del Sol, the beach rules when it comes to the major attractions at La Cala de Mijas. Idling away time at the shore as well as water sports are all very popular at La Cala de Mijas. The beaches are sandy and wide and ideal for families with young children or a baby in Spain as the variety of beach activities is wide enough to cater for all.
La Cala de Mijas, or simply La Cala, as it is known by local residents, has managed to retain some of its “old world” charm and traditional Spanish village character even though it is under half an hour's drive from Malaga airport and therefore sees a lot of tourists of all nationalities come and go throughout the summer.
Over the last few years there have been many new residents that have made La Cala their home but despite the steady flow, it has been a community that has controlled its development. Residents of La Cala are within easy reach of big shopping centres such as the Miramar in Fuengirola so it is convenient to be based in La Cala at the same time as having easy access to a large amount of shops. The Miramar is more of a complex complete with cinema, arcades and lots of restaurants, bars and cafes. For retail therapy you can spend hours walking around the shops inside as they cater for everyone with clothes stores, jewellers, a large Eroski supermarket, beauty stores selling exclusive products such as Tisserand and Elemis products as well as sports stores, furniture specialists and a lot more besides.
If you are thinking of relocating a business to La Cala you will also be pleased to know that it is also conveniently placed to benefit from local companies that offer services that are useful to use when starting out. Eyeprint for example, are Marbella printers and specialise in producing all printed materials such as business stationery and much more.
The rolling hills of the surrounding golf courses have done a great deal to stem much development around the area as well as being able to offer some high standard golf courses for both keen golfers and eager novices alike. Many of the courses in the vicinity have visitor prices and are open to the public, so providing you have your basic golf equipment such as a pair of golf trousers then can hit the driving range and go from there!
