Sometimes gastronomic tourism, culture or the fabulous beaches at the coast of Malaga are not enough to satisfy the fun and the needs of the little ones. When we are on holiday and we travel with the whole family, we may find ourselves in the situation of asking ourselves what kind of leisure and cultural plans we can include to do with the children, that go beyond sun, sea and sand castles.

The Costa del Sol, as a favorite tourist destination for thousands of families from all over the world, offers many activities so you can spend unforgettable moments with your family. Next, we present some ideas, leisure and cultural plans so that you can have moments full of fun and entertainment for the little ones and avoid having to listen to the much feared and exasperating “I’m bored”.

The leisure and theme parks you can find at the Costa del Sol:

Benalmádena has a great offer of leisure and theme parks to enjoy with children, such as the park Tivolí World, a park with 40 years of history which still today has thousands of visitors entertained, where attractions and shows will delight the most demanding children (and not so children). In addition, it has numerous services of shops, cafes and restaurants.

Just 20 minutes away from Malaga, the butterfly park “Mariposario” at Benalmádena is the largest butterfly space in Europe, with more than 1500 species from around the world. Throughout a walk in the beautiful garden with a tropical and humid climate, where iguanas, plants, tropical fish and even a kangaroo named Wally live, you can observe the butterflies as they flutter through the more than 2000 square meters of the complex. A unique and educational experience that you can’t miss out.

Also in Benalmádena you can admire the spectacular views of the Costa del Sol from its cable car, el Teleférico, which also offers walking trails along the roads and viewpoints that go up to Mount Calamorro, where you can admire the landscape of the beautiful flora and the different species of native fauna.

Continuing in the same municipality, the Sealife Benalmádena is an aquarium in the port that includes projects of conservation of the sea and endangered fauna. It offers an experience in a tour where you can see different marine species such as seahorses and starfish, rays, octopuses, turtles, sharks, otters and much more. A good way to educate the little ones in the respect and conservation of the seas.

Without leaving the town and continuing with the same theme, for those who like animal experiences, Selwo Marina Benalmádena is a park that offers encounters with dolphins, sea lions and other species of animals, as well as the opportunity to meet penguins in a conditioned environment to their habitat.

The Orchid park of Estepona is a botanical garden with more than 5000 plants and more than 1300 species of orchids from all over the world. Waterfalls and vegetation spread over two levels, with over 1000 square meters of surface and 15,000 cubic meters of volume, with three glass domes that are the hallmark of the building.

Recently, the botanical garden-orchid park of Estepona has achieved the flowering of the world’s largest flower, the “Amorphophallus Titanium”, a rare flower of difficult flowering, becoming the first center of Spain to achieve this and one of the privileged few in the world. As a curiosity, this flower is called “the corpse flower” due to the smell of decaying flesh and putrefaction that it gives off, to attract insects and thus get their pollination.

Following in Estepona we can choose to go to the Selwo Adventure Park, an enclosure where more than 2000 animals of 200 different species, birds, mammals and reptiles coexist in semi freedoms in an environment that faithfully recreates their natural habitat. In addition, you can do many activities of adventure, archery, zip line and crossing a suspension bridge.
