LOCATION
Only 19 kms from the airport, Benal Beach is located minutes from one of the smartest promenades of the Costa Del Sol and plans are afoot to extend it further. It presently covers several kilometres and stretches across the Benalmádena Costa area with the relaxing tranquillity of sand and sea on one side and the bustling commercial hubbub of activity on the other. There are many bars and restaurants all along the sea front where you can enjoy a pleasant time looking out across the Mediterranean or watching the world go by.
NEARBY ATTRACTIONS
Tivoli World 
An amusement park surrounded by beautiful fountains and gardens where you'll enjoy classical rides, shows and restaurants. Each family member will experience their own adventure. Purchase a Supertivolino ticket and you can go on certain rides as many times as you like.
Cable Car
Located just outside Tivoli World, the 4 person cable car takes you on an amazing 15 minute journey to an altitude of almost 800m above sea level. From this superb vantage point you not only have magnificent views of the Costa Del Sol but also the awesome panoramic vistas of the Sierra Nevada mountians, the Guadlahorce Valleys and, on a clear day, Gibraltar and the coast of Africa.
Once at the top you can take a donkey ride, see a fine exhibition of Spanish dressage horses or enjoy a demonstration on how birds of prey live alongside humans and watch the speed and feeding habits of a pelegrine falcon or the majestic flight of an eagle.
Jardin De Las Aguilas (Garden of the Eagles)
Located on the way to Benalmádena Pueblo, Jardin de las Aguilas is a wonderful Birds of Prey Centre. Majestic birds of prey spread their wings under the supervision of expert handlers and there are displays throughout the day giving all 152 birds a turn. Among the stars is Yaku, a rare condor. 
The centre is dedicated to raising and protecting many different species of birds so that eagles, falcons and vultures fly freely.
Next door there is a minature castle to visit, Castillo de Colomares, with beautiful grounds and breathtaking views. There's also Snake City, an impressive reptile sanctuary that is sure to make your skin crawl.
Located within walking distance of the resort, Selwo Marina covers a large site with various well presented shows and exhibition areas featuring dolphins, sea lions, penguins, crocodiles, snakes and exotic birds. An excellent day out for all the family, young and old alike.
Sea Life
A trip to Benalmádena isn't complete without a visit to the renowned Sea Life Centre. Located next to the marina, the centre is the perfect day out for both adults and children with educational tours provided by its enthusiastic and knowledgeable members of staff. As well as all the usual fish, visitors are able to see stingrays, starfish, crabs and sharks up close and personal through cleverly designed glass tunnels and tanks. With its own breeding programme for wide range of rare marine life, the Sea Life Centre places as much importance on conservation as it does on entertainment.

Aqualand - Torremolinos
Aqualand is located only 10 minutes from the centre of Torremolinos and is a place where you can spend a day having lots of fun with the best aquatic attractions one can ever imagine.
"Boomerang" is the only ride of its kind on the Costa del Sol and it'll keep you coming back for more. Aboard an inflatable, you'll skate down one side and fly up the other, so hold on tight! Don't miss the killer drop of "Kamikaze", either, it will leave you breathless. The force of one of the highest water attractions in Europe is not easy to describe. Imagine a daring free fall and the power of the water as you rocket towards the bottom!
