Right next to our office is Puerto Marina in Benalmádena, and it’s a place worth talking about. Here’s why people like it so much:
Why Puerto Marina stands out
- It’s big and fancy: Puerto Marina isn’t just any marina; it’s one of the biggest around, packed with high-end restaurants, cafes, and shops. Whether you’re looking to grab a bite, enjoy a coffee, or shop, there’s plenty to do.
- Looks cool: The buildings here aren’t your usual marina fare. They’re colorful, have a unique Mediterranean vibe, and you’ll probably want to take a few photos. It’s not just the boats that draw eyes; it’s the whole setup.
- Fun stuff to do: Beyond just eating and shopping, there’s an aquarium called Sea Life Benalmádena, where you can check out all sorts of sea creatures. Also, you can hop on a boat and take a cruise along the coast to see more of what the Costa del Sol has to offer.
Eating, shopping, and going Out
The marina has a lot of places to eat and shop. Whether you’re in the mood for seafood, Italian, or just a good old burger, you’ll find it here. And when the sun goes down, the place doesn’t sleep. There are clubs and bars to explore if you’re up for it.
What’s the big deal about the architecture?
Puerto Marina has this special look – think Mediterranean village but with a modern twist. It’s all about the colors, the quirky designs, and the little details on the buildings that make you stop and look.
