The Costa del Sol boasts a cuisine where tradition and flavour go hand in hand. From freshly caught fish to classic tapas and traditional sweets, this Andalusian coastline invites visitors to discover the true essence of the Mediterranean through its food.

Fried “pescaito” and espetos: flavour by the sea
Sardine espetos, grilled over an open fire right in the sand, are the most iconic image of the Costa del Sol. They are joined by pescaito frito, small fried fish served in portions to share and best enjoyed in the beachside chiringuitos. These dishes reflect the region’s deep maritime heritage and are an essential stop for any visitor.
Those staying in Torremolinos at hotels such as BLUESEA Al Andalus, BLUESEA Dimona Suites, or BLUESEA Gran Cervantes will be close to some of the best chiringuitos to savour these local delights.

Tapas and Andalusian cuisine: tradition in every bite
Tapas are part of Andalusia’s social life and a fantastic way to try different flavours in one place. From gazpacho to salmorejo, cured meats or homemade stews, the cuisine of the Costa del Sol offers dishes full of tradition and character.
BLUESEA Costa Serena in Torremolinos is the perfect accommodation to discover local tapas bars and enjoy authentic Andalusian cooking.

Local wines and desserts: the perfect finishing touch
The gastronomic experience wouldn’t be complete without Málaga wines, especially its internationally renowned sweet and muscat varieties. Traditional desserts such as borrachuelos or tortas locas provide the perfect final touch to any meal.
