Has The Costa Del Sol Become Too Expensive? 🇪🇸 The Costa Del Sol has long been one of the most popular holiday destinations in Spain, but has it become too expensive in 2026?
In this video we spend a full day in Fuengirola on the Costa Del Sol, eating, drinking and exploring to find out exactly what things cost. From Spanish breakfasts and tapas to beers, cocktails, coffee and dinner, we share real prices from around Fuengirola and compare them to what we paid during previous visits.
During the day we try:
🍳 A full Spanish breakfast for €8
🍺 Tapas and a beer for €2.90
☕ Coffee and Tejeringos from a local café
🍻 Two pints for €6 and two cocktails for €10 at O’Sullivan’s Irish Bar
🍕 Dinner at Luigi’s including pizzas, drinks and sides
We also explore Fuengirola, walk along the seafront, visit local cafés, bars and restaurants, and look at the cost of a holiday on the Costa Del Sol in 2026.
If you’re planning a Spain holiday, visiting Fuengirola, Malaga or anywhere on the Costa Del Sol, this video will give you a realistic look at current food prices, drink prices and everyday holiday costs.

Set between Málaga and Marbella, Fuengirola is one of the Costa del Sol’s most vibrant seaside destinations. Renowned for its year-round sunshine, seven kilometres of golden sandy beaches, and lively atmosphere, it attracts families, couples, and visitors looking for the perfect blend of relaxation, entertainment, and Mediterranean charm.
Originally a humble fishing village, Fuengirola has evolved into a thriving coastal town while retaining glimpses of its rich past. At its heart lies the Plaza de la Constitución, while the impressive Sohail Castle, dating back to Moorish times, stands proudly overlooking the sea. Together, these landmarks offer a fascinating contrast to the town’s modern waterfront and bustling promenade.
Fuengirola is also a paradise for food lovers and shoppers. From traditional tapas bars and fresh seafood restaurants to international cuisine, stylish cafés, and boutique shops, there’s something for every taste. The palm-lined promenade is perfect for leisurely walks, cycling, or simply enjoying spectacular Mediterranean views.
As the sun sets, Fuengirola comes alive with one of the Costa del Sol’s best nightlife scenes. Its wide selection of bars, beach clubs, live music venues, and late-night clubs are all within easy walking distance, creating a lively yet welcoming atmosphere. Whether you’re seeking a relaxing beach holiday, cultural discoveries, or vibrant evenings out, Fuengirola offers something for everyone.
