Málaga-Costa del Sol Airport (AGP)
Málaga–Costa del Sol Airport (AGP) is located just 10 km from the city centre — about 15 to 25 minutes depending on traffic. The Cercanías C-1 train is the fastest option, getting you into town in around 12 minutes, with departures every 20–30 minutes between early morning to around midnight. The A Express bus is another solid choice, running from Terminal 3 to central stops like María Zambrano station in about 25 minutes, with services every 25–45 minutes until midnight. Taxis and rideshares are also available right outside the terminal.
Passport & Visa
Citizens of European Union (EU) and European Economic Area (EEA) countries do not need a visa to enter Spain, only a valid ID. Many other countries, including the United Kingdom, United States, Canada, United Arab Emirates, Australia, and New Zealand, benefit from visa-free entry for short stays of up to 90 days within a 180-day period. Visitors from visa-exempt countries must hold a valid passport and, starting in late 2025, will need to apply for an ETIAS (European Travel Information and Authorisation System) authorisation online before travelling. For those requiring a visa, such as travellers from some Middle-East, African or Asian nations, a Schengen visa must be obtained prior to arrival. All travellers should ensure their passport is valid for at least three months beyond their intended stay.
Best Time to Visit
Malaga enjoys a mild climate year-round, with warm winters and hot, dry summers. Spring (March to June) is one of the best times to visit — the weather is pleasant, and the city feels lively without being overcrowded. If you're more into sun and sea, the summer months are perfect for a beach-focused trip, though July and August can be quite hot. Malaga also shines during its biggest annual events. Semana Santa (Holy Week) in spring transforms the city with dramatic religious processions. In August, the city bursts into colour for the Feria de Malaga, a week-long street party with music, dancing, food, and fireworks.
Public Transport
Malaga’s public transport is easy to use and covers most of what travellers need. There’s a two-line metro, city buses, and Cercanías trains that connect nearby towns and the airport. They all use the same rechargeable card (Tarjeta de Transporte), which works across buses, metro, and trains. For short stays, the pay-as-you-go option is the simplest and most flexible. That said, the historic centre is compact and very walkable, so you might only need transport for longer trips. For fares, routes, timetables, and where to get or top up your card, check the official Málaga Transport Consortium or Metro de Málaga websites.
Taxi
It’s easy to find a taxi in Malaga — official ones are white with a blue diagonal stripe and a roof light, and you can catch them at taxi ranks, the airport, train stations, or just by flagging one down. Ride-sharing apps like Uber, Bolt and Cabify also operate in the city and work well for both short trips and airport runs.
Post
Málaga’s main post office is on Calle Santa Lucía 7 and is open Monday to Friday from 8:30am to 8:30pm. Services include sending letters and parcels, collecting post, and P.O. box pick-up. You can spot a Correos branch by its yellow facade, and stamps are easy to find in tobacconists marked with a ‘Tabacos’ sign.
Pharmacy
Malaga’s pharmacies are mostly independent, with a few well-known ones in convenient spots. Farmacia Caffarena, on Alameda Principal 2 in the city centre, is open 24 hours and carries everything from prescriptions to skincare. Farmacia Mata, located on Calle Larios, is one of the city’s oldest, known for its custom preparations and classic interior. Closer to the port, Farmacia Castillón near Muelle Uno is modern and well-stocked, good for anything from travel essentials to beachside first aid. Look for the green cross signs—24-hour service rotates, and the on-duty pharmacy is usually listed on the window of any branch.
Electricity
Spain’s power grid operates at 230 volts with a frequency of 50 Hz, using Type F (Schuko plug) and Type C (Europlug) outlets. Both types accept plugs with two round prongs, common across continental Europe.
