This location gives easy access to the resort towns of Fuengirola, Benalmdena and the quieter La Cala de Mijas. Mijas Pueblo is also a short drive away. This is the perfect base to explore Andalucia and the real Spain.
On leaving Mlaga airport keep always in the right hand lane. Carry straight across the roundabout, keeping in the right hand lane. Follow signs for CADIZ still keeping in the right hand lane, and you will pass the San Miguel Factory. This road filters you onto the N340 heading west towards Cadiz and the motorway A7.
Keep in the right hand lane, as you will be turning off on the third exit onto the A7 motorway headed for Benalmdena, Cadiz and Algeciras. Once you are on the motorway, (also marked E15 and N340) climb the mountain and you will pass the exits for Torremolinos, (Km 227) , then Benalmdena and Arroyo de La Miel (Km 222), then Benalmdena and Mijas Pueblo (Junction Km 217). The motorway goes downhill at this point, and you should stay in the right hand lane.
The motorway signs request you select the correct lane, and you should be in the right hand lane, (N340 Costa) as soon the motorway splits into two. This is Junction Km 214 - take the sign for Fuengirola and Mijas but then stay in the left lane for Fuengirola, not the right for Mijas. This lane will eventually filter you onto the main N340 coast road. Stay on this road for 5 minutes, just past the Cruz Campo sign take the exit for Coin. Take the first exit on the roundabout to Coin another 5 minutes and you will pass under the motorway bridge take the second turn right, which is the entrance to Mijas Golf and the Hotel Byblos. Continue past the hotel to the roundabout take the second exit and continue up the hill until you reach Puebla Aida on the right. |
