This is the entrance to the Fuengirola train station which is the end of the line from the Maria Zambrano train station in Malaga.. There are escalators on both sides. If you are catching a taxi, take the elevator on your right. If you are walking to the Fuengirola bus station, it does not matter which side you come out!
The interior of the Fuengirola train station is very modern with a ticket office and then ticket barriers so that only passengers with tickets can access the platform. For the first few hundred metres the train travels underground before emerging into the sunlight. The next stop towards Malaga is the Los Boliches train stop. Planning has started to extend the train line towards Marbella and then eventually the train line will go as far as Algeciras. High speed trains will use this same line in the future. |
