Why move to Malaga Province?

Join the jet set with glamorous coastline, luxury apartments, fashionable bars and restaurants, and stylish city life.

Located in southern Spain in the region of Andalucia, Malaga province is probably best known for its gorgeous beaches, particularly those along the Costa del Sol (‘Sunshine Coast’). This glamorous strip of coastline is similar to Southern California in climate and scenery, with warm weather throughout the year and a landscape comprising beaches, cliffs, estuaries, bays and dunes. If you fancy a taste of the high life consider relocating to Marbella, playground for the rich and famous; think expensive yachts, fashionable bars and restaurants, luxury apartments, and designer shops.

However, there’s so much more to Malaga than the Costa del Sol. The city of Malaga itself is buzzing with a growing gastronomic scene, edgy urban arts, and a huge number of museums. The birthplace of Picasso, Malaga’s many museums include the Museo Picasso Malaga, which was opened in 2003 after more than 50 years of planning.

Malaga is also fast becoming the food hub of southern Spain, thanks in part to a varied landscape which provides all the conditions needed for virtually every type of produce. Restaurants in the area have access to an abundance of freshly caught seafood and excellent local produce including olive oil, wine, cheese, ham, and a huge array of fresh fruits and vegetables.

As with other parts of Spain, there are excellent transport links in the area, including Malaga airport, which provides affordable access to most parts of the world. Public transport in the province is plentiful and great value for money, with air-conditioned buses and trains running regularly. Malaga city also has an excellent cycle network, with affordable bike rental services and miles of bike lanes. The province has lots on offer for families too, with international schools and plenty of leisure and adventure parks to entertain the young (and young at heart!).
