25 Best Malaga Instagram Spots By a Local

Are you looking for the best Malaga Instagram spots? Malaga is one of the most picturesque destinations in southern Spain. The Mediterranean Sea, historic buildings and sunny blue skies are a photographer’s dream.

I grew up and raised in Malaga, so I know these locations very well and can’t resist taking photos when I pass them.

This list includes my favourite and most popular instagrammable spots in Malaga, their exact location and my tips for taking photos at these spots.

Catedral de la Encarnación de Málaga

Malaga Cathedral is one of the best photo locations in Malaga. This Renaissance historic building, also known as La Manquita, is to be admired.

Roman Theatre

You can access the Roman Theatre without paying, although I think that photos are better from far away. You get the Roman Theatre and the Alcazaba in the background.

Calle San Juan

Calle San Juan is a charming street in Malaga. On both sides of the street, you have shops and an art gallery called Little People, and you can see Iglesia de San Juan.

La Terraza de Valeria

La Terraza de Valeria is a rooftop terrace located in Room Mate Valeria Hotel, one of the best hotels with rooftop pool in Malaga.

La Malagueta

La Malagueta is the closest beach to Malaga city centre, which is why it’s the most visited. Besides its convenient location, Malagueta Beach is beautiful. Go there at sunrise for magical photos.
