Some tips for your stay in Málaga
Neighborhoods
La Cala del Moral is the first bay leaving Málaga Capital towards the East. It is a former fisher village, humble and quiet with all you need very close. Málaga is a 20min bus and 40min bike ride away, Rincón de la Victoria a 10 min walk in the other direction, all along the coast. There are many beach restaurants (chringuitos) on the 1.2 km long beach with a huge variety of tapas and seafood.
In our neighbourhood, Serramar, there are tenis and paddel courts only 2min walk away from our place. The neighbourhood is quiet, only five min walk away from the beach but a true oasis of peace.

We fell in love with Málaga a few years ago. It is a very walkable city with lots to discover and a booming cultural scene and a stunning 40+ museums, Picasso, Thyssen, Pompidou, among others.

Very historic and romantic place close to Pedregalejo, one of the liveliest beaches in town. A little upscale but worth it for a tapa, a coffee or a cocktail. Between La Cala and Malaga Center.
