Malaga is great for an affordable getaway. You can tick off most of the must-see locations in the city by foot, including the beaches, or hop on local public transport to get around. Lots of the museums offer free entry on certain days of the week too, so make sure to do your research before you visit.
Malaga Airport (AGP) is only 8km from the city centre and it’s the international gateway to the Costa del Sol region of southern Spain. There are various transport options that will get you to your hotel, including a bus service, a quick 12-minute train ride or a taxi from outside the terminal.

As the birthplace of Pablo Picasso and one of the most ancient cities in Europe, there are many reasons to visit Malaga – both old and new.

From the Picasso Museum to the newly opened Centre Pompidou, the art and gallery scene in Malaga is second to none.
