With a little help from AI...

Here’s an itinerary that lets you see the best of Mijas - from the Pueblo to the beach -  as suggested by ChatGPT.

Morning in Mijas Pueblo:

Start your day in Mijas Pueblo, known for its whitewashed buildings and narrow streets adorned with vibrant flowers. Try a leisurely breakfast at a local café, perhaps traditional Spanish toast with fresh tomatoes and olive oil, accompanied by a strong coffee. After breakfast, stroll through the picturesque streets. Don’t miss the charming Plaza de las Flores, where you can soak up the atmosphere and take some photos with the iconic backdrop of the Sierra de Mijas. Visit the Mijas Bullring, an intriguing octagonal structure that's one of the oldest in Andalusia, and the nearby Mijas Miniature Museum, showcasing intricate mini art pieces.

Midday Exploration:

For lunch, savour local cuisine at one of the delightful restaurants in Mijas Pueblo. Try pescaito frito (fried fish) or paella for a delectable taste of the region. After lunch, head to the Mirador de la Pena, a viewpoint offering breathtaking vistas of the Mediterranean and nearby coastline. This is a perfect spot for a photo op!

Afternoon Adventure:

Next, take a short drive or catch a bus to Cala de Mijas, a beautiful coastal area where you can enjoy a leisurely afternoon on the beach. Relax on the sand or take a refreshing swim in the clear waters. The promenade boasts several beachfront chiringuitos (beach bars) where you can grab a drink and snack, allowing you to soak in the coastal vibe.

Evening in Las Lagunas:

As the day winds down, make your way to Las Lagunas, a neighborhood that blends modernity with tradition. Here, you can explore the local shops and perhaps pick up some artisanal crafts or souvenirs to remember your trip. As the sun sets, enjoy dinner at a local restaurant; seafood is a significant highlight in this region.
