It's the hilliest part of the playa as the mountains come almost to the sea. It's also the part with the widest and nicest ( in my opinion) beaches.

There are lots of bars and restaurants along the paseo including some lovely Spanish ones. There is also, however, a short 'Brit strip' but not to the scale of some parts of the Costa del Sol. 

We have an apartment in that area and it really is beautiful, although extremely busy in July and August. If you want more authentic Spanish then possibly Garrucha which is a working town and port with wonderful restaurants and a great beach

Hi Louisa, I live permanently in that area and love it. I’m a single lady and have met and made lots of friends. The beaches are the best here and some lovely restaurants. I don’t have a car but find it easy to get about on the busses. PM me if you would like any more information. Sandra
