For almost everyone traveling to Finca del Cielo, Málaga is the city where you arrive by plane.
And honestly? It would be a shame to just drive past this bustling coastal city. Málaga is surprisingly beautiful: a mix of beach, culture, history and lively squares - an ideal first or last stop on your trip.

A warm, Mediterranean city full of atmosphere

Málaga is bustling, but at the same time full of charm. The city feels open, light and sunny, combining a modern boulevard with centuries-old streets and squares.
It is a wonderful place to land for a while: stroll through the center, enjoy tapas or stroll along the coastline where palm trees set the rhythm.

Alcazaba - Moorish elegance with a view

In the middle of the city rises the Alcazaba, a Moorish fortress from the 11th century.
With its arches, gardens and water features, it is reminiscent of a small version of the Alhambra - but without the crowds.
From its walls you have a great view of the harbor, the city and the ancient Roman theater.

Picasso Museum - the city of the master

Málaga is the birthplace of Pablo Picasso, and you can feel it in the museum full of works from his early and later periods.
Even if you are not an art connoisseur, this is a fascinating place.

Culinary city with tapas on every corner

From traditional taverns to modern gastro-bars, Málaga is a paradise for lovers of:

• tapas

• fresh fish

• sweet wine (vino de Málaga)

• churros at authentic cafes

The streets around Calle Larios, the cathedral and Plaza de la Constitución are ideal for an evening stroll.

Port & beach - Mediterranean relaxation

The modern boulevard Muelle Uno is perfect for a relaxing afternoon.
You'll find restaurants, designer stores, a marina and the colorful Centre Pompidou.
A few minutes away is La Malagueta, the city beach where you can soak up the sun with your feet in the sand.

Don't miss Málaga - it's the perfect start or end stop

Because Málaga is the region's airport city, most travelers automatically pass it by.
But those who stop there will discover a city full of beauty, culture and atmosphere.

It really is a waste to see Málaga only as an arrival point - give it at least a few hours, or even a whole day, and you will be rewarded with a city full of life and Mediterranean charm.
