It is well known for its healthy and activating climate; the temperature falls even during December to February seldom beyond 15ºC.
In July and August, it may sometimes reach 35ºC, however, due to the continuous cool wind that always blows through the valley of Guadalhorce, it never becomes oppressively hot.
Furthermore, it is a fact that Alhaurin el Grande – due to their rivers and natural sources - never experiences any shortage of water which is of great value in Spain.
Sports and other facilities of Alhaurin el Grande include two golf courses nearby (Lauro Golf and Alhaurin Golf), walking, hiking, biking through nature protected areas; large selection of restaurants, bars and shops of all kind, library, sport and fitness centres, pharmacies, medical and dental treatment, etc.
Alhaurín el Grande is a town located in the province of Málaga in the autonomous community of Andalusia in southern Spain.
It covers an area of 73.1 km2 extending from the northern slope of the Sierra de Mijas and the plain of the Guadalhorce river, where alternate crops of citrus and other fruit trees orchards are found.
The population reaches 23,675 inhabitants, according to 2010 data.
The origin of the name was given by the Arabs, who called it "Alhaurin", where the Catholic Monarchs added "el Grande" to distinguish it from the neighboring town of Alhaurín de la Torre after the conquest of both sites in 1485.
It is situated between the river Fahala and the stream of Blas González.
The coast is close by and there is a network of roads to get there.
There is a road to Málaga Airport and Torremolinos, which takes about 30 minutes by car.
A new road was built in 2010 connecting the town with Fuengirola and the beach which is only 20 minutes drive.
There is also another new road to Marbella, to the southwest with Mijas just along a winding road round the mountain.
From Alhaurín there is a view over the "Hoya de Málaga", Málaga's vale, full of lemon trees and other fruit trees.
Villafranco del Guadalhorce is a village within Alhaurín el Grande's municipal territory.
It was founded by colonist families in the 1950s and subsidized by the Instituto Nacional de Colonización of the Spanish government.
