La Malagueta Beach is a beach in the downtown district of the city of Malaga. It is an urban beach…read morewith dark sand located on the eastern coast of the city, between the port of Malaga and La Caleta beach. It is about 4,000 feet long and about 150 feet wide on average. It is a popular and frequented beach due to its central location, in the neighborhood of the same name. It has all kinds of services like bathrooms, showers, children's play areas, hammocks and umbrellas, beach bars, buses for arrival, etc. In the months of June, July and August, the summer cinema takes place, in which movies are shown and can be accessed completely free of charge. We walked for a long while and it was peaceful but busy at the same time. The Chiringuitos are famous beach bars where they cook the sardines on long skewers on a small wooden boat on the sandy beach....

This "Chiringuito" (local beach bar with grilled seafood on the menu) is located right on the…read morepopular beach. It is open all year round, and prices are rather low. The most typical dish is "esparto de sardines", a skewer of sardines grilled by open log fire. It is nie here, nice but not excellent. Another typical dish is "gammas al pil pil", shrimps in spicy oil with some chillis, but I have had better "pil pil" than I had here here. You will get a basket of fresh bread with your meal. I disliked to see the owner feeding all the bread leftovers to the pigeons on the beach, and so the birds "leave stains" in the neighborhood of the bar.

The prices leave a lot to be desired, there are better and cheaper places in Malaga to eat. I definitely do not recommend it ___ Sitio malísimo y carísimo...

I really enjoyed the "Twister de gambas" (shrimp tempura), the "boquerones" and the "espetos". We also try clams and small fried calamari. Everything was amazing! One of the best places I've never try in Costa del Sol. Not surprise the restaurant was full (even though the beach seems to be big to have enough tables). The service was perfect: quick and diligent. And our meal was super cheap: 85€ for a 6-person dinner, including 3 beers for some of us and wine. I will come back for sure!
