Its worth going up the hill to enjoy the spectacular view of the ocean, the city , the bull fight ring etc etc. we visited in May and it was slightly chill , great view and time well spent.

This is the real gem of Malaga. It is worth making the effort just to get some good pictures, the views really are spectacular, but be warned. Even those who are of good fitness will find the walk quite tough, it is long, winding and steep - I wouldnt even attempt it. You can get a bus there for 1.30euro... More

We had fun exploring the Castillo and transporting ourselves back to the day when it was filled with life and action.

We hopped off a bus tour of Malaga at the castle and were delighted with the spectacle. Not much information provided but you're able to walk the entire castle walls and in doing so get views of the whole of Malaga from above. Amongst the greenery inside there were black squirrels who were pleased to pose for photos in return... More
