Welcome to the September edition of OCIO magazine. As the visitors start to return to their real world, life on the coast begins to calm down once again, but still, the summer vibe continues as we enjoy the fabulous September temperatures. This is a great time to enjoy all that this wonderful part of Spain has to offer, and we don’t have to search for 30 minutes to find a parking space either! We all know that autumn is on the horizon, bringing with it the chilly winds and cold nights but it isn’t with us just yet, so don’t pack away those flip flops too soon.

It finally feels as though the summer party has started. The temperatures are high, the beaches are busy, the restaurants are in full swing and there is live music to enjoy at so many venues. Our extensive restaurant pages give you plenty of ideas on where to go and what to eat. We also present the new Tesla Roadster, a beachwear feature to keep you looking good, reasons to invest in good sunglasses, tips on home entertaining, how to incorporate the coastal vibe into your home and so much more. We hope you enjoy reading this edition as much as we enjoyed creating it. Happy summer everyone.
