|
| History |
|
|
|
|
This is a
relatively new region of the Costa del Sol and it is only because Marbella
grew into such a large town that it exists today.
After Marbella had merged into San Pedro, holiday makers, developers and
hoteliers started to look for more land in which to expand. As a result, the ‘New Golden Mile’ was
born. Theory has it that the region was named after the Golden Mile region of
Marbella because of the many new luxury hotels that started to spring up in
the area, as well as a number of large villas and exclusive
developments.
Minor remnants of earlier history do remain; recent discoveries point to
the fact that in the 7th Century BC there were Phoenician and Punic
settlements in the region as confirmed by the existence of the Guadalmina
Thermal Baths.

| Description |
|
|
|
|
|
The New
Golden Mile is a stretch of coastline full of urbanisations, restaurants and
bars. There are many water sports to
enjoy including water skiing, jet skis, wind surfing and catamarans.
Along the beaches you will find many chiringuitos (beach bars). They normally have wonderful fresh fish on
the menu, which you can enjoy with a glass of sangria. In addition, the well-known Spanish dish
paella is available almost anywhere.
In this area you can find the Selwo Safari Park; covering more than 100
hectares the park is home to free roaming animals from all over the world
living in natural habitats that have been recreated. There are also more than 2000 semi-free
roaming animals and birds of prey. Additional provisions within the park
include nature classes, swinging bridges, safaris, camping, accommodation and
much more.

The Costa
del Sol is aptly named – the sun makes an appearance almost every day and
temperatures range from a mild 8ºC in the winter to a very pleasant 30ºC in
the summer, consequently outdoor activities play a huge part in our lives,
from the more energetic pursuits such as sailing, swimming and golf to the
very popular relaxing pastime of eating and drinking!
