About Cala de Mijas and its attractions:
La Cala de Mijas belongs to Mijas, in the province of Málaga. In the middle of the Costa del Sol. Cala de Mijas is located in the coastal area of the municipality, except for some rocky areas between the boundaries of Fuengirola, to the east and Marbella, to the west.
La Cala de Mijas is less than one kilometre long.
The most important thing is underwater. Because it is home to a great biodiversity in which a large number of European, African, Atlantic and Mediterranean species coexist.
Another attractions of Cala de Mijas is from its medieval past, four towers that formed part of the fortified line along the coast are preserved. Its main function was to warn if enemy ships were approaching so that the garrisons could go to the site where the Berber pirates were attacking.
