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.

If you prefer to explore the Costa del Sol on your own schedule, book a car hire with British Airways and receive great benefits, with all mandatory charges included and 24-hour customer support. Plus, collect Avios points on every rental.

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. A picturesque port city in the south of Spain, Malaga has everything from medieval buildings and grand cathedrals to lively tapas restaurants and spectacular beaches. Take a stroll through the Old Town and see the Moorish Alcazaba, an ancient fortress dramatically overlooking the sea. From the Picasso Museum to the newly opened Centre Pompidou, the art and gallery scene in Malaga is second to none.
