A great way to discover the Costa del Sol is by relaxing ferry ride. Hop from Benalmadena to Fuengirola with this handy ferry service, up and down the coastline.

Benalmadena and Fuengirola are two of the Costa del Sol's most bustling and lively resorts. Travel between either seaside towns at ease, with this comfy ferry service, return or one way. It's a great way to take in Fuengirola's busy, Tuesday market or stroll its streets of shops and tapas bars. Or vice-versa, you can head to Benalmadena's upscale Puerto Marina for some relaxed shopping and a spot of lunch.

Along the way, you can top up your tan with a seat on the open deck or get some shade indoors. You'll choose how you enjoy the ride. And as you admire the pretty coastline, the crew keeps you informed about landmarks along the way.

A two hour trip becomes an hour by time you leave port half hour after the advertised time and arrive at your destination half hour before.

Nice way to get to visit the two places . Nice views along the way.

Enjoyed the experience of getting on the ferry and seeing the Marinas but apart from the marina and going on a dolphin trip there wasn't that much to offer in Benelmedena. Also we had to find ourselves where we going to catch the boat so I would suggest TUI tells you the location and port number of where to go too

It would be great to be given a time on the booking,we had to find our TUI rep to ask,I did email & try to call TUI but no answer & the email takes up to 20 days to reply The captain was great,he turned the boat round when a pod of dolphins were spotted so we could see them beyter

Very civilised way to travel to fuengirola
