Surrounded by pine trees, Cabopino beach is backed by natural sand dunes, which make up the only section of the coast not urbanised. The La Cala de Mijas to Cabopino section of the Malaga coastal path is a 6km scenic boardwalk. This beautiful path stops 500m short of Cabopino and then winds its way across the Artola Dunes, a protected, natural monument to the west of the port.
Cabopino is well sheltered and protected from the elements, making it child-friendly as it slopes gently into the sea. Artificial reefs on either side of the beach keep the waves and wind at bay. Enjoy a wide choice of activities from Cabopino Water sports, including fishing trips, dolphin watching, waterskiing, or throw yourself onto the “Flyfish” or “X-treme” if you dare!

An old fortified watchtower, Torre Ladrones, stands on the dunes above the beach. From its privileged position, it is possible to see all along the coast to Marbella. At 15 metres high, this is the highest watchtower around the Malaga coastline and was once used to spot enemies approaching the land.
