“Oportunidades SIMed”: A new event for property agents and developers
From April 29 to May 2, the Málaga Trade Fair and Conference Centre (FYCMA) is playing host to a new property show, “Oportunidades SIMed.” These kinds of events, independent of the Mediterranean Property Show (SIMed), are becoming increasingly popular. It was created to meet the sales needs of property agents and developers facing huge stocks of homes for sale, and to give a boost to trade in the sector. |

Fitur: Good results with fewer participating companies
Despite the crisis and the lower number of participating companies, the Costa del Sol Tourist Board has considered its presence at Fitur (Madrid, January 20 to 24) to have been positive. According to our President, Salvador Pendón, “meetings went according to plan, and they are expected to give rise to important agreements.” This year, our presence in the event was austere, as we relied on a budget that was 30% lower than in the past edition. |

Hiking in Sierra de las Nieves
The township of Tolox belongs to the region of Valle del Guadalhorce. However, geographically speaking, it’s in Serranía de Ronda, within Sierra de las Nieves Nature Park –an area affording some of the most beautiful landscapes in Málaga Province, between Puerto de los Pilones and Pico de la Torrecilla (1,919m). When it’s covered in snow –only a few weeks a year–, it gets even more beautiful. It’s just spectacular. |
