Online Guide to Benalmadena (OGB) by Luisa Faraguna
Food scene
Lovely restaurant by the Sea to taste Malaga's 'Pescaíto frito' (fried fish) and our most popular 'espetos de sardinas' (barbecued sardines). They also serve ‘boquerones, calamares, calamaritos, chopitos, salmonetes, pescadillas, almejas, navajas, gambas, mejillones, conchas finas, huevas’ and 3-4 tipes of salad and roasted vegetables.

Marbella
Old town and Marina, both worth visiting.
Amazing Atlantic Ocean Beach, perfect for a day trip. Please check there is no intense wind beforehand, especially not 'Levante'. I recommend visiting 'Baelo Claudio', the Roman ruins of an amazing place famous in all Empire for its 'Garum'. It is good for both surf and windsurfing.
