Discouraged by the
weather situation, we're happy to take the first bus to Torremolinos. Tarifa’s
station terminal is rather basic: the reception is closed, chairs are non-existent,
and the terminal’s cleanness surely is not what you would go for. We get our
ticket (about 10 euro) on the bus, we get in line and... goodnight everyone!
Torremolinos is
just as I expected it to be: touristic, very touristic. It’s nice for a one-day
stay, but nothing more. We chose it as the last stop of our Andalusia’s tour because
the following day we would have departed from Malaga airport (approx. 10 km
away) at 9 am and therefore, it was convenient. In fact, you can safely take
the train (1 € approx.) that takes you directly to the airport.
As I said, since
the town is very touristic, it doesn't stands out for its architectural beauty;
on the opposite, you can see stretches of beachfront hotel tower blocks that
litter a landscape, which is already not great.
Once we take
possession of our room, we go to eat at the restaurant on the opposite side of
the road: we don't even have all the money to pay the bill, as we’re missing
about 70 cents, but with a little blink of eyelashes and an apology, we make it
out of there :D
We spend the rest
of the day at the beach, which is very crowded, with a slight sea. It’s almost
impossible to swim, each wave pulls my bathing suit down... it’s better
for me stop showing off!
In the evening, we
take a beautiful paseo in the center, which is filled with shops, then we go
for a walk along the beach, we do some last minute shopping, and then we head
to bed. Our vacation's over.
