Gibraltar: all you need to know

One of the places you shouldn't miss when visiting Andalusia is this little piece of England. Surrounded by Spain on one side and washed by the sea on the other, Gibraltar really does belong to the UK, so if you have an irresistible urge to take a photo in the iconic red phone box or grab a proper English breakfast, you've come to the right place. However, the biggest draw here isn't the typical English stuff, but rather the Gibraltar Nature Reserve, where you'll be the only place in Europe where you can spot wild monkeys.

Trips from Malaga vol.2 - coastal edition

It follows on from the introductory article with practical information about Malaga and the first part of the trips focusing on the inland. In this post, I will mention places along the coast that I think you should definitely not miss. Let's do it!

 

Best trips from Malaga - inland

In my introductory article about Malaga, I detailed where to rent a car, where to stay and what to see. Now where to go next? How to spread your time? Will it be worth it? Of course, no one can give you the exact answers, but... I've written down my top places in Andalusia, including a bunch of photos, links to accommodation and the main attractions, which might be at least a small hint. Unfortunately/unfortunately, I've collected so many travel tips that I've had to sort them - thus the categories INLAND, which we'll look at below, and COAST, which you can find here. May it be of use to you! :)

Malaga: practical info + itineraries

Or another in a series of articles about off-season travel. We have visited Andalusia three times already, each time in winter and each time it was absolutely amazing! Not that we don't enjoy shoveling snow and ice off the car on the way to and from work, but... what can we say, every degree above zero and every ray of sunshine on your face comes in handy in January. Andalusia has won us over with its unique hilly landscape full of beautiful views, mountains and slopes covered in the ubiquitous olive trees, hiking opportunities and on the other hand, urban walks and historical sites. The perfect combination.
