Malaga
Malaga – A city, seaport, and holiday resort in southern Spain, on the Mediterranean Sea. Malaga is the center of the Costa del Sol, a major tourist region of Spain. The attractive, cosmopolitan city lies on a beautiful sweep of bay in Andalucia. Blessed with over 300 days of sunshine each year. Malaga is a city of wide boulevards, swaying palm trees, lively nightlife, good museums and excellent seafood restaurants.
The coastal area enjoys a privileged Geographical position: protected from the North winds by the Sierra de Tejeda mountains, it benefits from the highest average temperatures in Spain. Rugged and irregular in the eastern part, with rocky projections of land that penetrate the sea, it is milder and sandier in the western area, with large beaches that make it one of the most developed parts of Andalusia, thanks to its demographic and tourist appeal.
As well as being a cultural centre, Malaga is also a great place to eat out. The locals love their food and the bars and restaurants here are where the real social life takes place. The choice is unlimited and, on the whole, very reasonably priced. Tapas (small portions of many different dishes) is an Andalusian tradition, and a wonderfully inexpensive way to try a variety of local food.
