Laura asked if the La Colina train stop just along the line from Malaga airport was the best one to get off at when travelling to the Hotel Sol Don Pablo down on the Paseo Maritimo in Torremolinos.
I had never been there before so I checked it out. It was an overcast day when I took the photo but if you look carefully you will see the 19.12 train from Malaga to Fuengirola train station rounding the bend. You can set your time by the this train line. If you click on the picture to enlarge it, you will see the station clock reads exactly 5.12pm.
Watch the video of the Malaga to Fuengirola train pulling into and out of La Colina train station.
The trains travelling from Malaga airport train station on their way to Fuengirola train station arrive and leave from the La Colina train stop three times every hour with the timetable that has been in operation since early September 2011.
From La Colina to Malaga airport the journey time is 9 minutes.
Laura asked if there were any taxis at this stop. There is nothing but a big car park and a public telephone at the end of the car park. If you need a taxi from La Colina you can phone Radio Taxis Torremolinos on 952 38 06 00. Given its isolated position, you would probably not want to arrive late at night on your own at La Colina. It would be a good place to leave your car at if you didn’t want to drive into Malaga, another 32 minutes down the line.
