Located on the Costa del Sol, in the very south of Spain, Malaga is one of the most emblematic destinations for vacations in Spain. In the heart of the Andalusian coastline, this seaside resort is undoubtedly one of the most popular in the country, thanks to its heritage, its culture, its dynamism and its splendid beaches.
The birthplace of Pablo Picasso, Malaga was founded by Phoenician sailors over 2800 years ago. Dominated by the green valleys of Mount Gibralfaro, Málaga is known as the sunniest city in the country, just behind Huelva. With an average temperature of 19°C, it attracts visitors all year round, who come in winter to escape the sub-zero temperatures and in summer to enjoy the pleasures of its long golden sandy beaches. There are a few sites worth visiting in Málaga, such as the Alcazaba fortress or the Gibralfao castle, built on the eponymous mountain in the 14th century to protect the Alcazaba. In addition to their splendid architecture, these historic sites are worth a visit for the views they afford of all of Málaga. Once back in the heart of the city, take the time to stroll through its ancient streets to discover the Cathedral of the Incarnation, the Contemporary Art Center, the ruins of the Roman Theater, or the magnificent Finca de la Concepcion Botanical Garden. With its subtropical and tropical flora, it is one of the most majestic in the country. Then stop by the Flamenco Art Museum in Pena Juan Breva, the bullring, the Pompidou Center of Malaga, stroll down Calle Larios for a drink on the terrace, before finally visiting the famous Picasso Museum: housed in the 16th century Buenavista Palace, it is one of the symbols of the city of Malaga, perfect for learning about the history of the famous artist. In total, you will have the opportunity to see 233 sculptures and paintings spread over 11 rooms, tracing the work of the artist.
Malaga is also a huge temple of gastronomy. Here, everything is delicious, everything is appetizing, and the flavors of the local cuisine often come from the sea. Grilled sardines (los espetos) are THE typical dish of the city, followed closely by anchovies, also called "boqueron". Goat cheese, raisins, Malaga sweet wine, almejas a la malaguena, olives, porra antequerana (a kind of gazpacho), fried fish (chanquete Malagueno), mollete de Antequera, fig bread, galettes de Algarrobo, Yeùas dem Tajo, pestinos de Canete and other migas Andaluzas will delight your taste buds.
Finally, Málaga would not be Málaga without its seaside: after enjoying the splendid street art in the Soho district, take the time to stroll around the marina before reaching the beaches of the resort. The famous Malagueta beach is very popular with vacationers, thanks to its location near the city center and its many facilities. Huelin Beach, La Caleta Beach or the long beach of Pedregalejo, next to the fishermen's quarter, are perfect for sunbathing. When it comes to water sports, you'll be spoiled for choice, as there are many sports available along the Malaga coastline. Scuba diving, SUP, windsurfing, jet-skiing, surfing, bodyboarding, kitesurfing, kayaking or even palm-walking will satisfy all the thrill seekers.
