Spain Trip: Malaga Beach Escape on a Weekend Itinerary!

#hellohalloween Ready to soak up the Costa del Sol? 😎☀️ I hit up Málaga and Nerja for sun, history, and that unbeatable Spanish chill. The absolute highlights: swanky car rental as soon as I landed, epic fortress views, and golden beaches you’ll never want to leave.

Top Spots to Visit

1. CarGest | Car Hire Malaga Airport
Av. del Comandante García Morato, 42, Churriana, 29004 Málaga
Pro tip: Book ahead—Malaga’s car rentals go FAST in peak season. Getting your ride straight from the airport streamlines your whole trip (zero stress, more beach time).

2. Playa de la Malagueta
Málaga, Spain (P.º Marítimo Pablo Ruiz Picasso, Málaga-Este, 29016 Málaga)
Open 24/7, this sandy urban beach is perfect for first-day ‘I made it!’ pics. Loads of chiringuitos (beach bars) line the promenade, so don’t miss a fresh seafood lunch.

3. Alcazaba of Málaga
C/ Alcazabilla, 2, Distrito Centro, 29012 Málaga
Open 09:00–20:00 (summer), 09:00–18:00 (winter). Last entry 45 mins before closing.
This Moorish fortress is an absolute must for Insta-worthy views. Go early to beat the crowds and the heat!

4. Burriana Beach, Nerja
Cam. de Burriana, s/n, 29780 Nerja
Wide sandy stretch, open all day. Super family-friendly, and amazing for a long swim. Don’t skip a walk along the Balcón de Europa for jaw-dropping cliffside views.

Getting Around & Tips:
Drive! Having a rental makes day trips painless and lets you explore hidden coves. Malaga has decent buses but for beaches and Nerja it’s easiest with a car.
Weather: Pack SPF and a hat regardless of season; the sun is 🔥 year-round.
Eat: Try espetos (grilled sardines) right on the beach—it doesn’t get more local.
