Welcome to ”The Rest is Spain” podcast – Mafia Special part two!
In this episode, we take a deep dive into the infamous “Costa del Crime” era of the 1970s and 80s, when Spain’s southern coast became a hotspot for gangsters, fugitives, and organised crime figures from across Europe. From high-profile hideouts to the rise of criminal networks on the Costa del Sol, we explore the stories that shaped this notorious chapter in Spain’s history.
