With people in northern Europe experiencing high rainfall, dark and cold winters as well as short summers, southern Europe is becoming more and more popular, in particular Southern Spain and the costa Del sol.
The Costa Del Sol experiences mild winters with the mercury rarely dipping below 15 degrees celsius, add to that over 300 days of sun and the outdoor lifestyle naturally becomes your way of life.
The rolling hills make it not only perfect for outdoor walks and cycling but for those who are a little more adventurous mud buggying is a great activity.

Marbella has a low crime rate, high standard of living and the quality of food and life are what brings so many people, the unique microclimate means the temperatures are never too extreme either way and the hills are covered in greenery which really adds to the charm of the area.

This is a new addition with other popular visa such as the golden visa giving full living visas for 500,000 investment in spain.
