Mijas' bullring is small and unique as it is oval shaped. You can tour the bullring and small museum if you're not interested in attending an actual bullfight.

Just east of Mijas is a mountain with antenna towers at the peak. There is a service road to the top that you can hike (~3 km uphill!) or drive (carefully!) to get incredible views of the coast, and on clear days to Gibraltar, the Atlas Mountains in Morocco, Ronda, and the Sierra Nevada mountains behind Granada.
