Living in Fuengirola, on the Costa del Sol, has long been synonymous with wellbeing, but in recent years it has become a true benchmark for enjoying a relaxed lifestyle, first-class services, and a safe, international and vibrant environment.
Today, we’d like to share why the quality of life in Fuengirola stands out not only in Spain, but across Europe — and how our new development, 7 Olas, takes this lifestyle even further.
A privileged climate to enjoy every day
If there’s one reason why thousands of international residents choose Fuengirola, it’s the mild Mediterranean climate, with over 300 days of sunshine a year. With pleasant temperatures, life can be lived outdoors almost all year round — something reflected in the active, healthy lifestyle that defines the city.
This climate doesn’t just improve physical and emotional wellbeing: it also encourages simple, rewarding routines such as heading to the beach after work, exercising by the sea, or enjoying dinner outdoors in the evening without worrying about the cold.
Unbeatable connections to the world
Another major advantage of living in Fuengirola is the way it combines the calm of a coastal town with the outstanding connectivity of a major city.
Málaga-Costa del Sol International Airport is less than 20 minutes away and it’s one of Europe’s key airports, with direct flights to the continent’s main cities. Getting there is easy by car via the motorway, which also links Fuengirola to nearby destinations such as Benalmádena, Marbella and Málaga.
For those who work, travel frequently or maintain international ties, this location is simply ideal. You can enjoy life by the sea without giving up global mobility.
Top-level services: schools, healthcare and safety
When living in Fuengirola, quality of life is also measured by the services the city offers, which surpass many other Mediterranean destinations. The area boasts:
- Highly regarded private and bilingual schools.
- High-quality hospitals and medical centres, both public and private.
- An efficient, modern municipal service network designed around residents’ comfort.
In addition, the Costa del Sol is known for its safe, multicultural environment and exemplary international integration.
Gastronomy: tradition, flavour and the Mediterranean lifestyle
The Mediterranean diet, recognised as one of the healthiest in the world, is part of everyday life when living in Fuengirola. Here you’ll find traditional restaurants, beachfront venues, international cuisine from every continent, and gourmet spaces.
All of this comes with a lively atmosphere year-round: buzzing terraces, local markets full of fresh produce, food routes, and the chance to enjoy freshly caught fish every day.
Fuengirola’s food culture enhances the overall sense of wellbeing and adds a social dimension that’s inseparable from local life.
A city made for leisure and wellbeing
Living in Fuengirola offers a wide range of activities that’s hard to match, including:
- Wide, well-maintained beaches.
- A seafront promenade stretching over 7 km.
- Parks, sports areas and water sports.
- Shopping centres, cinemas, theatres and cultural spaces.
- Immediate access to iconic nearby spots such as Marbella, Mijas Pueblo, Mijas Costa, Benalmádena and Málaga city centre.
