Málaga · Costa del Sol
La Malagueta
The easiest beach to combine with sightseeing in Málaga. Walk from the port and Muelle Uno without moving the car.
Before you go
A beach is good only when it fits the plan
Do not cross the whole coast just for this beach. Its strength is location, not wilderness or crystal-clear water.

Practical details
Access, food and facilities
Best reached on foot from the centre or by bus; beachfront parking can be frustrating.
Chiringuitos, port restaurants and a huge choice in the city centre.
Seasonal loungers, pedal boats and play areas.
Combine it with the Alcazaba, Muelle Uno and dinner in the old town.
Check local notices, lifeguard flags and temporary restrictions on the day. Sea conditions matter more than any guide.
