Ideally located beside the Mediterranean, Malaga is a sun seeker's paradise, and beautiful beaches stretch down along its coast. But this city has more to offer visitors than just sun, sea and sand, including numerous interesting attractions such as the imposing Gibralfaro Castle. Add to that the local cuisine and the lively bars and clubs, and you'll soon see why Malaga is the top city in Spain's Costa del Sol.

Insider Tip:go to the Casa Invisible for nightlife in the upper part of the city and to beaches at Pedregalejos (bus 11 from the centre). And make sure you join the Feria, which lasts for one week in August and or Carnaval in any time of the year.
Absolutely a city worth visiting, all year long nice weather. The city is not to complicated to find the way, and many sights to visit.
Insider Tip:Also take the bus to Granada (for me maybe about 1-2 days, to visit alhambra and other sights)
Malaga is a beautiful city. People are a lot nicer in Andalusia than in the big cities at the east coast, like Barcelona. But I if you have to chose I would recommend Sevilla first. If you have time to spare definitely visit Malaga to. The city offers cityseeing/culture, great food, beaches & surfing, chilling out at the Parque de Malaga is also very nice.
Insider Tip:Bodega Bar El Pimpi is sightseeing and great food! Order the chorizo with a glass of Vino Dulce, and take a picture of the message Antonio Banderas left there.
I stay here during the "feria" of august, and it was a very very very good situation. Everyone was partying and prices were very good!
Malaga is one of the must-be-visited cities in Spain: history, beach, sun, cultural tourism, great food. You have lots of info on the Internet about it, so I really do not have much to say. It is worth.
Insider Tip:Go there when there are ferias and other things like that, so you could have a busy stay.
