Early Morning Photography Walk
Overview
While the rest of the town sleeps the sleep of the innocent (or the drunk) our intrepid band will be out taking pictures at sunrise. This tour is not just for the photo buffs, everyone is welcome to come along for the walk and see Fuengirola in a fresh light (bad pun I know).
The tour takes around 2 1/2 hrs and after the sunrise on the breakwater, we’ll visit another 7 sites.
This tour will take you around areas you’ve probably never been and best of all, there’ll be very few people to get in the way. Some sites are more challenging than others to get the perfect, or even interesting, picture so be ready to compose!
What You’ll Experience
We’ll meet 15 minutes before sunrise on the seafront at the entrance to the breakwater, then walk out to the breakwater together.
After admiring the dawn and photographing the city and coast from the breakwater, we’ll spend around 2 hours walking to various sites around the city and fairground that are usually too busy with people to properly appreciate.
At each stop you’ll have 5 minutes to compose and take your pictures and then we’ll move on. No pressure then!
