Malaga
Malaga is often touted as a tourist destination for locals. Yet also internationally the city of Malaga is famous for its tourism trade; but mention Malaga to anyone in the know and you are most likely looking and somewhat shocked faces until one of your friends will finally ask you if you are aware how hot it is in Malaga.

To understand the concern it is important to realize that Malaga is located in Andalusia, which in turn is part and parcel of the Costa de Sol. Even though the city is located on the coast, the weather in Malaga, Spain is not always as temperate as travel guides will want you to believe. Granted, during the average year, Malaga in particular and Spain in general will have a mostly temperate climate which makes the weather hot but not unbearably so.

Yet if it is a drought year, the weather in Malaga turns from temperate to hot, and you will be greeted by a wall of heat as soon as you arrive at the Malaga airport. It pays to find out the 10 weather forecast for Malaga and Spain to avoid any unpleasant surprises and to help you plan for the wardrobe you will most likely need.

A cheap flight to Malaga is easy to find, since in spite of a positive Malaga weather forecast not too many travelers will generally venture to Andalusia. While some are afraid of the temperature in Malaga, Spain-bound travelers are also aware that the city is a magnet for gay travelers and some families do not wish to take flights to Malaga that may be partial charters of certain gay organizations.

Misguided or not, the gay friendly atmosphere has harmed the city of Malaga a bit with respect to global tourism, and not even cheap flights to Malaga are able to completely make up for this situation. Of course, when considering the fact that the secular progressive attitude that is currently permeating Europe is spreading faster than a wildfire in a California forest, it is only a matter of time until a flight to Malaga will be booked to the last seat and no longer cheap.

As you hire a car in Malaga, ask for the “plano Malaga” which is the city plan or map, and which will allow you to find your way around independently. Visit the harbor, the various museums that are devoted to art, especially Picasso, and if you are still planning your trip on the Internet, go ahead and take a look at the many Malaga webcams to get a good feel about this city.
