Costa del Sol
Coín is an inland market town in the Guadalhorce valley, well known locally for its produce market and its position between the mountains and the coast. Members here are making a genuine cross-country journey to reach Fuengirola, and the trip is by road from start to finish.
Coín is around 33 km from Fuengirola, and the drive usually takes 35 to 40 minutes via the A-355, which connects to the A-7 coast road for the final stretch. There is no railway station in Coín, and no fast public transport route to the coast, so the journey is almost always made by car or taxi. The road passes through open countryside and small villages before descending towards the coastal plain near Fuengirola and Mijas.
Coín sits in the fertile Guadalhorce valley, historically known for its citrus, olives and market gardens, and its Tuesday market still draws people from across the surrounding area. It's a working inland town rather than a coastal or tourist one, with a slower pace than Fuengirola or Marbella.
Geographically it sits between the two coastal towns, but the road network makes Fuengirola the more practical destination for most journeys towards the coast.
The A-355 runs from Coín down towards the coastal motorway network, connecting with the A-7 close to Fuengirola and Mijas Costa. It's a reasonably direct route through open countryside, without significant urban traffic until close to the coast.
There's no public transport alternative that comes close to matching the speed of driving — no train, and bus routes that exist are limited and indirect.
For members unfamiliar with Fuengirola, the drive down from Coín is also an introduction to the coastal town itself — many combine a visit to the club with a look around the centre, the port or the seafront.
As with any first visit, messaging the team on WhatsApp beforehand helps clarify what registration involves before making the trip.
Weed Club Fuengirola does not publish its address, in keeping with how private cannabis social clubs operate across Spain. This applies to members from Coín in exactly the same way as it does to those from the coast itself.
The team explains the location once you're in contact, and registration is always finished in person, with valid photo ID confirming you're over 21.
