The Malaga Harbour and what it has to offer for Spain Holiday Rentals
When on your SPAIN HOLIDAY RENTALS take some time out and pay a visit to the beautiful city of Malaga. This seaside resort with its excellent modern day harbour is dependent on the sea for all its livelihood, inspiration, recreations and economy. The sea has transformed Malaga over the centuries into a significant player on the world stage of trading since the 19th century. Today that trade has become a tourist trade with the village of Malaga turning into a major port of call for cruise ships. Malaga is home to a large port which is big enough to provide anchorage for liners such as the Queen Mary II, making Malaga accessible from all over the world by sea.
If necessary there is a ferry service from Malaga harbour to Melilla; this is a Spanish city situated on Moroccan northern shore. During the summer months there is a ferry to the Tenerife part of the Canary Islands that runs once a week.
Some three thousand years ago the port of Malaga was used by the Phoenicians as a trading post. Today it is the second most important cruise port in Spain. The ports economy is based on imports, fishing and exports as well as cruise ships. Close to the city's centre and just opposite the park is the protected entrance through a natural bay to the harbour.
If you are up for a stroll there is a promenade where you can see the cathedral and the harbour. The walkway leads down to the beach of la Malagueta where you will find all the restaurants, cafes and pubs that you need to satisfy your hunger and thirst. At certain times of the year the port plays host to music festivals and concerts, just check and see when they are scheduled to make sure you don't miss anything.
At sometime in the future the port has plans for an entertainment complex including cultural offers next to the docks that will satisfy your needs while on your SPAIN HOLIDAY RENTALS. In the mean time Malaga has sun, sea and sand accompanied by an excellent climate for you to enjoy. The other items for you to sample is the local culinary expertise on offer at one of the harbour side restaurants where you can sit and relax while watching cruise ships enter and leave the port.
