They call it ‘the silver cup’ because of the beautiful color of its waters, which surrounds three-quarters of its territory creating a silver-colored ‘clothing’. The oldest city in Europe has one of the longest promenades in the country and from which you can see one of the most beautiful sunrises you can imagine.

Walking through it you will see two of its castles, which have an incredible history. One of them, that of Santa Catalina, was used as a prison. Also, very close to the promenade, just across the street, you will find the old town, a delight to behold.

2. Fuengirola
