August on the Costa del Sol is 27 °C by day and 24.5 °C in the sea. The water is at its yearly peak, and so is the density along the whole shore.
August is the month the coast looks the same from Málaga to Estepona, and the differences between towns cannot be seen. They live in the winter figures: Fuengirola scores 4 out of 5, Marbella 5, Nerja 4, Málaga 5. Those are checked in February, not now. An August trip completes the picture, but no decision is made on it.
