Beach

Málaga is blessed with a prime spot along the Mediterranean shoreline, where visitors and locals alike kick back on the seemingly endless miles of sandy beaches. There are beaches to accommodate every type of beach goer - surfers, families, sunbathers, etc. - located both inside and outside of the city.

Pablo Picasso

Easily one of Spain's most prolific artists, Pablo Picasso is Málaga's most famous son. Head to Plaza de la Merced to visit the home where he was born, which has now been turned into Pablo R. Picasso Foundation - Birthplace Museum. You can also visit the fairly new Picasso Museum of Málaga, where you can spend hours wandering through a collection of his works.

Weather

Málaga is lucky enough to have enjoyable, mild weather all year round- cool but not too cold in winter and hot but not boiling in summer. With around 320 days each year of sunshine, any time of year is the perfect time of year for a visit to Málaga.

Food

Featuring typically Spanish-Mediterranean dishes, Malaga’s cuisine is light and nutritious and incorporates new and old traditions. Plus, with Málaga's coastal location, you can be assured seafood of all kinds, fresh off the boat and on to your plate.

Location

Málaga's prime location provides it with the best of both worlds. Not only does its spot on Mediterranean Sea's "Costa del Sol" (Coast of the Sun) make for sun-soaked, carefree days on the beach, but Málaga is also just a stone's throw from such emblematic Spanish destinations as Sevilla, Córdoba, Granada and Marbella.
