The number one beach in Málaga itself, you’ll know you’re in Malagueta by the presence of that whole massive ‘Malagueta’ sign thing. This part of the city has come a long way from a 19th century spent as an industrial area full of warehouses and factories, with the relaxation of the beach the only industry going on today. The beach is 1,200 metres long and 45 metres in width, but it still gets pretty busy. There is also a playground for kids.
