PICKUP & RETURN
Pickup at Torremolinos
Pickup points cluster around the centre and the N-340 avenue, and hotel delivery is widely offered. The airport is one cercanías stop away, so compare both options on price and timing.
Driving & parking
The A-7 / MA-20 puts the airport 15 minutes away and Málaga 20. East to Nerja is about an hour; the A-357 reaches the Caminito del Rey in roughly 45 minutes.
Parking
Central streets around La Nogalera fill fast — use the underground car parks or the lots behind Playamar and La Carihuela. Confirm hotel garage space for August stays.

DESTINATIONS
Worth the drive from Torremolinos
Benalmádena
Málaga · 22 km
Three towns in one — a pretty pueblo, a busy beachfront and the playful Puerto Marina — plus a mountain cable car and a fairy-tale castle. A varied, family-friendly stop close to Málaga airport.
Caminito del Rey
Málaga · 65 km
The famous cliff-hung walkway through the Gaitanes gorge is a one-way, two-entrance affair in the middle of nowhere — which makes a car by far the easiest way to do it, and turns the trip into a full lake-and-mountain day out.
Mijas
Málaga · 30 km
A whitewashed village perched 400 metres above the Costa del Sol, twenty minutes up the hill from Fuengirola — postcard lanes, sweeping sea views and an easy first taste of white-village Andalusia.
Nerja
Málaga · 55 km
A whitewashed beach town on the eastern Costa del Sol, built around the Balcón de Europa lookout — with cliff-backed coves, the famous caves and the village of Frigiliana all a short drive away.
Frequently asked · Torremolinos
The airport is only 15 minutes away — one cercanías stop — so its bigger fleets and sharper prices are always within reach. Rent there if you want the car for the whole stay. Rent in Torremolinos, or have the car delivered to your hotel, if you only need it for two or three excursion days; off-airport pickup also skips the arrivals-hall queues of high summer.
Skip the dense central grid around La Nogalera — it fills fast. Use the underground car parks in the centre or the lots behind Playamar and La Carihuela and walk the last stretch; the seafront is flat and pleasant. Many hotels have garages, worth confirming for August. At beach lots, don't leave anything visible in the car — the coast's one standard precaution.
EU/EEA, UK and US licenses are accepted in Spain. An IDP is recommended (not required) for US, Canada and Australia drivers — bring the original license too. Check your home country's rule before you fly.
Yes — one-way drop-off to Seville, Granada or Almería is common from Málaga Airport. Expect a €40–€90 fee depending on the supplier and class. Drop-off outside Andalusia varies.
May–June and September are ideal — warm sea, sunshine and far fewer crowds than peak summer. July and August are hot and busy, so book the car early. Winters are mild and quiet, great for driving the white villages without traffic.
