Málaga, the local's cheat sheet

This is the short version of what I'd tell you over a coffee before your first trip, on eleven pages that fit your phone. I've lived in Málaga's centre for over four years, so it's the stuff I actually use, from the €1.80 airport train to the hour the Picasso Museum lets you in free.

What's inside

  • Airport to the centre, including which staircase to take at the station
  • The free hours at the Alcazaba, Picasso Museum and Cathedral
  • Málaga's coffee scale, so you know what a mitad is before you order
  • The fines people miss, like €75 to €500 for feeding the pigeons
  • Which neighbourhood to book, what lunch costs and the easiest day trips by train

A peek inside

Small enough for your phone
