Costa del Sol
Alhaurín el Grande is a traditional white-walled town further into the Guadalhorce valley than Alhaurín de la Torre, with a slower pace and a strongly agricultural surrounding landscape. For members here, a visit to Fuengirola means leaving the valley entirely and crossing over towards the coast, a proper inland-to-coast journey rather than a short hop.
Alhaurín el Grande is around 40 km from Fuengirola, and the drive typically takes 40 to 45 minutes via the A-366 towards Coín and then the A-7 along the coast, or via Cártama and the A-357 as an alternative. There is no railway station in the town, and no direct bus route makes the journey quick, so almost everyone travels by car or taxi. The road climbs and descends through olive and orange groves before eventually reaching the coastal plain, which makes the drive itself notably different in character from a coastal journey.
Alhaurín el Grande keeps much more of a traditional pueblo character than its larger, faster-growing neighbour Alhaurín de la Torre. Whitewashed streets climb a hillside above the Guadalhorce plain, surrounded by olive groves and citrus orchards that still shape the local economy.
It's genuinely inland — further from the coast than Coín, and considerably further than the towns that sit directly behind Fuengirola.
There are two realistic routes: south via the A-366 through or near Coín and onto the A-7 coast road, or east via Cártama and the A-357 towards the Guadalhorce valley's connection to the motorway network. Both eventually bring you onto the A-7 for the final stretch into Fuengirola.
Neither route is served by rail, and bus connections that exist involve changes and considerably longer journey times than driving, so almost all members make this trip by car or taxi.
Given the distance, most members from Alhaurín el Grande treat a visit to the club as part of a wider trip to the coast, often taking in Fuengirola's seafront, port or town centre either side of the visit.
It's worth confirming everything with the team by WhatsApp before setting off, since the club doesn't publish opening times, prices or its address.
Weed Club Fuengirola, in common with other private cannabis social clubs across Spain, does not publish its address publicly. This applies to every member equally, whether they're arriving from the coast or from an inland town like Alhaurín el Grande.
Once you're in contact with the team, they'll share the address and explain the in-person registration process, which every member has to complete regardless of where they've travelled from.
