Malaga offers visitors great restaurants, excellent museums and historic monuments. But the biggest magnet of the capital of the Costa del Sol are the nearby sandy beaches. You don’t even have to leave town to enjoy the beach. Whether you are looking to relax or party the night away, you’ll find everything you need within a 15-kilometre radius of Malaga.
There are 15 beaches within the city limits. The 2 most popular destinations, Malagueta and La Caleta, are within walking distance from the city centre. Both beaches are framed by a long boulevard, perfect for joggers and cyclists. To escape the crowds, take a car or bus and head east to the beaches near the village of Rincón de la Victoria. West of the city, things get a lot livelier around the tourist resort of Torremolinos.
