Malaga cruises, Spain

What's great about Malaga cruises?

Set on the sun-drenched Costa del Sol, Malaga is a Moorish delight. During the Arab occupation of Spain, the city was the principal port of the Moorish kingdom of Granada. So what does that mean for you? It means the city of Granada and its striking Alhambra Palace are just a short drive away. Prepare to be blown away.

  • See Malaga’s 16th-century cathedral. It’s known as ‘La Manquita’ or ‘one-armed woman’ because lack of funds meant only one of the two planned towers was completed.
  • Visit Marbella, a Spanish town known for its hot climate, beautiful landscape and friendly locals. Wander its quaint narrow streets and have your camera ready for the famous Naranjos Square and the City Hall.
  • Take a drive to the millionaire’s playground that is Puerto Banus. Admire the luxury yachts and pull up a pew in one of the open-air restaurants and bars that cater for an exclusive clientele.
