Malaga |
| |
|
| |
|
| |
|
| |
| |
Capping the southern coast of Spain, the historic port city
of Málaga abounds with living images of this romantic
country. Visitors are entranced by the colors and sounds of
flamenco dancers and bullfights, while the whitewashed buildings
and winding streets dappled with bougainvillea carry you back
to the early days of Spain.
In Málaga, you will learn pure (Castilian) Spanish, eat
paella and gazpacho, drink rioja wine and sangria, listen to
flamenco, and dance Sevillana style. This is the ideal city
to experience authentic Spanish culture and language with the
fun-loving and passionate Andalusian people.

Three Good Reasons

Malaga Weather |

The Mediterranean climate consists of
hot summers and mild winters, and is usually dry. In the
summer (July-September) the temperature is generally in
the 70's to 80ºF's (20-30ºC's). It rarely, if
ever, goes above 95º F (35º C). In the winter
months (January- March), evenings are chilly. |

Jogging and Walking

an enticing track for jogging and walking enthusiasts.
