Transportation Facilities In Costa del Sol

Many people consider to spend their holidays to Costa del Sol due to the Spanish region's advanced tourism facilities. The region is characterized by pristine beaches, world-class resorts, fine weather, magnificent natural wonders, stunning architecture, rich culture, and friendly people, all drawing crowds of tourists from all across the world.

Another reason Costa del Sol remains a popular tourist spot is that the region is easily accessed from air, land, and sea. In fact, the Malaga airport has opened recently a new terminal called Pablo Ruiz Picasso. The terminal, an open-plan glass-and-steel structure, can house more than 20 departure points and 86 check-in desks that cater to more than 9,000 passengers per hour. Automatic state-of-the-art luggage systems can manage 7,500 pieces of luggage per hour for more than 100 airlines. The facility also has the usual amenities such as restaurants, cafes, shops, resting areas, offices, and business centers to make any traveler cozy. Malaga airport officials predict that the airport will be able to serve 20 million passengers per year.

Land travel has not been left out. In 2007, Spanish newspapers reported the opening of a new advanced train that connects Malaga and Madrid. The AVE, or Alta Velocidad Espanola, is a rail service of high-speed trains that can reach speeds up to 300 kilometers per hour. That means people can travel from Madrid to Malaga and vice versa in a little over 3 hours. The success of the AVE encouraged the construction of a rail link to connect Barcelona to Anteguerra. There are also plans to link Malaga and Seville via AVE, which makes it possible for one to travel to either city in less than an hour! Best of all, the government is looking at AVE trains to have stops in all Andalucian airports in the future.

For sea travel, the city of Malaga undergone the construction of the San Andres Port. When finished, the port will have 626 mooring berths, a sailing school, and an entire complex. Two more major marine-related constructions are still in the pipeline. One is a major extension of the present docks. The other one is a dock specifically made for cruise ships.
