Torremolinos in October
Around 20.5 °C by day, sea 20.2 °C. Warm enough to swim. Quieter than the peak: 3 of 5.
October in Torremolinos is 20.5 °C by day and 20.2 °C in the sea. Load has fallen from the summer 5 to 3 out of 5, and the town returns to ordinary life.
Torremolinos was this coast's first resort: in the fifties it became Spain's leading sun-and-sand destination and the first in Andalusia. Hotels along the sea and dense building remain from that wave. For anyone moving that means an urban setting rather than a resort strip. Living without a car scores 5 out of 5, the train to Málaga and the airport takes 15 minutes, and the hospital is 10. The square metre is €3,875 on the ministry's appraisal, foreign residents 21.9%.
