A laid back hotspot
Malaga is famous for its glorious sunshine, beaches and bars. Relax in fine Spanish restaurants and bars or cross the border and wind your way up to the top of the famous Rock of Gibraltar. If its nightlife you’re seeking it is bursting with lively clubs and bars. Malaga, the birthplace of the artist Pablo Picasso offers museums, beautiful beach promenades, trips to cities such as Granada and Seville, culture full of art galleries and traditional bullfights. This old city boasts beautiful architecture, striking narrow streets and if visiting Malaga at Easter you could even see one of Spain’s famous religious festivals.
City breaks are a brilliant way of escaping your normal life and seeing a little bit more of the world, but sometimes they can be a little stressful, when you are faced with the hustle and bustle that so many destinations seem to have.
But it doesn’t always have to be like this. In fact, by choosing a Malaga holiday you are choosing a relaxed and laid back place for your city break. And if you need convincing of the tranquillity of the city, take a wander through the quaint streets of San Agustin and La Juderia to really experience the laid back atmosphere.
As well as being gifted when it comes to beaches, Malaga can also boast a rich history as well as plenty of culture. It is well known for being the birthplace of artist Pablo Picasso, but that’s not all. The cultural improvements that the city has seen recently have been vast. The city has been working towards becoming the European culture capital in 2016 and as a result, the city as well as people on holidays in Malaga have really benefitted.
Malaga is a lively destination and one of the most popular spots to visit on the Costa del Sol. Sadly though; a lot of people simply pass it by. They land at Malaga airport and then whizz off to one of the other resorts on the Costa del Sol. But by doing this, tourists and visitors to the area are missing a vibrant city, which boasts an excellent mix of old and new.
