The very best
of Fuengirola

Fuengirola, known as Suhayl during Al Andalus times, was named after the second-brightest star, which was said to be clearly visible from the fortress built by the Muslims on a hill in the 10th century. Today, both the historic castle and the star Suhayl are iconic symbols of Fuengirola. As one of the top destinations on the Costa del Sol, Fuengirola offers a wealth of attractions for all ages throughout the year.
