2. B. Ahora le estos párrafos y dí en cada línea de abajo cuál es la idea principal de cada uno de ellos. Te puede
ayudar lo resaltado en negrita. Recuerda que tienes que decir de qué va cada uno, no copiarlo.
1. Fuengirola lies just 20km south west of Malaga airport half way between Malaga city and Marbella. It is the third
major tourist development on this section of Spain's Costa del Sol along with Torremolinos and Benalmadena
Costa.
2. This huge resort covers some 10km of coastline with intensive developments of hotels and apartments many of
them high rise forming the typical concrete jungle resort which attracts mainly British tourists. Although catering for
all age groups it is probably most popular with families and middle aged couples than with the younger crowd. You
can find a selection of highly recommended hotels and apartments at discount rates on our Fuengirola Hotels
page
3. The beaches are impressive and spread the whole length of the resort area apart from the central marina area
from where you can take part in a selection of watersports. Surprisingly in such a tourist centre you'll still see
fishermen out on their small trawlers each morning catching your evening meal should you frequent one of
Fuengirola's seafood restaurants where the morning's catch becomes the evening speciality. No need for the less
adventurous visitor to be afraid as there's plenty in the way of pub grub and fish and chip shops!
4.
You can pass many hours wandering along the long promenade along the coast stopping at the many bars and
cafés. If you can cope with the climb you can visit the remains of the Moorish castle of Sohail on the western
edge of the resort. Tuesday is a big day for shopaholics when the weekly market which moves up and down the
coast each day is set up in the centre of town and is the the Costa del Sol's most popular market destination.
5. If you're feeling a little more energetic you'll find plenty places from where you can go windsurfing and scuba
diving is popular. There's a zoo which should keep the kids amused for a few hours as well as a water park.
Fuengirola is especially popular with golfers as it is ideally located for access to a wide selection of courses on what
has become known as Spain's Costa del Golf. By night there's no shortage of bars and restaurants to suit every
taste and pocket.
6. You can book half day excursions from Fuengirola to Marbella, Mijas, the Caves of Nerja and Malaga city. Full day
tour destinations include Granada to visit the Alhambra Palace, Seville, Cordoba and Ronda. Other novel tours
are a Gibraltar shopping trip and a full day excursion to Morocco. If you'd prefer to just use public transport
rather than going on a scheduled coach tour you can always find a taxi for local outings and there are regular
coastal bus services up and down the coast. There are trains into Malaga city every 30 mins which is well worth the
effort to see the Moorish ruins of the Gibralfaro and the new Picasso museum.
