Playas near Malaga. If you are looking for quieter more secluded beaches then hire a car and drive a short distance along the Costa del Sol to the following beaches:

  • Playa Torrox: About 30 miles up the coast, this is a much less-crowded beach. Just 300m long. The only inconvenience is its proximity to the main road.
  • Playa Benajarafe in Velez Malaga: Just a short drive away, some regard this as Malaga's best beach. Dark, fine sand, over 4km long and 33m wide.
  • Playa Almayate Bajamar in Velez Malaga. Nearly 4km long, this nudist beach gives you an idea of what the coast used to look like before tourism took over. Plans to build a promenade however may mean that it's time asMalaga's only unspoilt beach is limited.
