Found in Spain’s picturesque Andalucia region, the town of Torremolinos is quickly developing a reputation for being a “hot” tourist destination—and not just for its sunny beaches. Just like Benidorm (which is found in the Southern part of Spain), it’s a place to party, party, party till dawn.

Of course the beaches are great, and the water sports are certainly a good way to enjoy the famous Costa del Sol weather, but unlike the other beaches where people go to escape and enjoy the “quiet life”, Torremolinos is about living it up. It’s not exactly known for its history or culture (for that, you go to Madrid or Barcelona), but it’s the fantastic escape for the young crowd who are looking for excitement and plenty of wild memories to bring home.

This is not to say that Torremolinos is a teen hang out. The place attracts people of all ages. They’re drawn by the beauty of the pristine beaches, which stretch out for miles and promise many happy hours of sunbathing and watersports. Some are honeymooners, some are yuppies looking for a fun escape from droll office life, some are married couples who need a fun break from chores, bills, and kids. And what Torremolinos gives them is non-stop action. You can hike in the morning, dive in the afternoon, take a short siesta in a shady part of the beach, head for the bars and the tapas in the evening, and then dance till dawn. What a way to squeeze everything into your vacation!

Torremolinos’ incredible party scene are also ideal for young singles looking for a little romance. There are even some gay bars. But whatever your age, your sexual orientation, or whether you’re there to have fun with your husband or find a husband, this is the town where you can enjoy a few days of being totally carefree. Leave your stress and your inhibitions behind. Dance, drink, and belt out a song. And if you’ve had a little too much, it’s okay—so has everyone else! After all, this is what vacations are for. And in Torremolinos, your vacation will be unforgettable.
