Bil Bil Beach is located in the heart of the town of Benalmádena and it is one of the beaches most appreciated by the inhabitants of the area and it is not for nothing. At one end of the beach there is something that attracts many visitors and we are going to explain it to you right now.
The location of the beach itself is already one of the attractions of the location itself, which is why many locals and tourists have Bil Bil beach as one of their favourites.
Bil Bil Castle
What is at one end of Bil Bil beach? Exactly, at one end is Bil Bil Castle, an ancient castle built in 1927 by the Hermann family. It is an Arab-style castle with a red plastered exterior and decorated with tiles. The Hermann family could not enjoy it because of the outbreak of the Civil War, so since then it has passed from one owner to another and is now owned and managed by the local town council.
The Bil Bil Castle is illuminated at night and together with the exterior gardens and the palm trees that surround it, it is a spectacular image to end your day at the beach in Bil Bil Beach.
What services are available at Bil Bil beach in Benalmádena?
Bil Bil Beach is 400 metres long and 20 metres wide, with fine sand and a dark shade, a beach with a really comfortable access to the sea where you won't need booties or any kind of footwear to enter.
It is a very family-friendly beach and comfortable for everyone, in fact, the beach has disabled access and a free car park near the beach itself.
And as the Costa del Sol has a hot sun, there is also a sun lounger and parasol rental service on the beach. And to make your day at the beach more fun and adventurous, you can also find in the same town a variety of summer and water activities that we recommend you to practise, such as the dolphin watching or a catamaran excursion in Benalmádena.
One summer day that we highly recommend is to spend the whole day at Bil Bil beach. Go prepared with water and sunscreen and enjoy a nice swim in the sun. Afterwards, of course, do some of the fun water activities available in Benalmádena and finish with a drink or an ice cream at the beach bars in the area. Finally, we recommend you stay until the sun goes down so you can enjoy the illumination of the famous castle, which will give a magical touch to your summer days.
