Have you heard of Pedregalejo, Malaga? Many travellers explore Malaga city centre but miss Pedregalejo, a traditional fishing neighbourhood not far from the city centre.
As a local, I can say that Pedregalejo Beach is one of the best beaches in Malaga, and Pedregalejo is a fantastic place to enjoy its relaxing vibes and the traditional grilled sardines.
Pedregalejo is a small residential area; however, there are plenty of good beach restaurants and amazing beaches that make this area worth visiting. Let’s dive into the things to do in Pedregalejo.
Enjoy the beautiful sea views, see bougainvillaea flowers hanging down some houses and explore the little streets behind the promenade.
The museum offers guided visits perfect for immersing yourself in the culture because they aren’t all related to the construction of boats but gastronomy and music too.
You can’t go to Pedregalejo without trying the traditional espetos (grilled skewers). You’ll see sardines and other fishes being roasted in a barbecue made in a small boat.
