not much if thetes no replies !!!!!!!!!!!
you will find lots to do!! what kinda things do you like doing on holiday??
Its a big place.
Lots to do , it all depends where you are going and what kind of things you like doing.
Loads of places to visit good food and drink.
Something for everyone.
There isn't much to do here when it rains, especially if you have young children. There is always the Picasso Museum if not indoor shopping centres. Sorry not to be more inspiring.

I presume the OP is going to Torrox costa and not Torrox pueblo, so he/she will be between Malaga and Nerja
So, there's always Torrox pueblo to visit or about 5 kms away is Nerja, Malaga city is further in the other direction.(appox 45kms)
If it's raining a short taxi ride to Nerja should fill the day until the sun comes out to play again and a visit to the famous caves.

thanks for your replies.yes its torrox costa, what will be will be,i just hope weather is settled
we were able to walk on the front to benalmadena/marina which was nice,visit fuengirola and malaga. in malaga we took the city tour bus get off at the picasso musuem ,theres some nice cafe bars etc in that area.we laughed at the people who had no light wet weather clothing who then purchased 3 euro small umbrellas,they seemed to last for approx 10 minutes before breaking. i suggest useing the train to get about when possible, we stood all the way to malaga on the bus it was so full and the bus to fuengirola stopped every 200 yards for a bus stop.
IMHO - the answer to your question is - nowt after the caves in Nerja.
I lived near there for 7 years and really there is nothing to do if it rains - not geared up for anything other than sunshine.
If you are taking children make sure you have plenty to keep them amused indoors.
just returned from fuengirola on friday and it rained 7 days out of 10 not just showers but torrential rain!! and sorry there really isnt much to do if it rains. was there last year at the same time and the weather was great so you might be lucky because i think we got all the annual rainfall when we was there
Sun is important & I hope we get lot(!) but don't intend letting poor weather spoiling my well-earned break.
I would not recommend you drive a left hand drive hire car on unfamiliar roads - on the "wrong" side of the road - in the rain - especially on the Granada road. The spray given of by the large number of lorries that use that road sometimes make it like you are driving through thick fog - been there and done that and my OH is used to driving a LH drive car in Spain. It can be very frightening especially if it the rain is heavy.
regretting my choice of destinstion already,new i should of risked turkey,its 85 and sunny there
