As well as spectacular views of the city and port from the heart of Malaga, the Molina Lario hotel’s rooftop boasts an exclusive and very original offering of cocktails inspired by sea routes all over the world. Don’t miss the version named after the city – the Málaga Müle – a mixture of Muscatel wine, lime juice and ginger beer.
Although it’s not easy to reach, the bench of Redondela is absolutely magical. It competes with another in the neighbouring town of Ortigueira in La Coruña to be the best perch in the world as the views it provides are beyond compare.
