Málaga, Spain Cruise Port 🇪🇸 | Worth Exploring on Your Own
**Málaga Spain cruise port** was a great stop on our European cruise aboard Sky Princess! We got off the ship and explored Málaga on our own, discovering historic landmarks, beautiful gardens, local shops, a traditional market and the city's lively summer atmosphere. We really enjoyed walking around Málaga, and we think it's a city well worth getting off the cruise ship to explore for yourself. During our walk, we passed **La Malagueta Bullring**, wandered through the beautiful **Jardines de Pedro Luis Alonso**, discovered the traditional jasmine-seller statue known as **El Biznaguero**, and admired the impressive **Málaga Cathedral** as its bells rang. We also came across the ancient **Roman Theatre of Málaga**, with the historic Alcazaba fortress towering above it. We explored the busy shopping streets around **Calle Larios**, where a colorful arch marked the city's famous Feria de Málaga celebrations. We were hoping to visit **Atarazanas Central Market**, but unfortunately it was closed when we arrived. We still got to admire its enormous stained-glass window from outside. One of the unexpected highlights of our day was witnessing a traditional procession featuring horses, decorated carriages, colorful banners and people wearing traditional Andalusian clothing. This was a short but enjoyable look at Málaga, and our experience showed us that you don't necessarily need to book an expensive shore excursion to have a great day in port. **Planning a Málaga cruise port stop?** We hope our walk gives you some ideas for exploring the city independently. This video is part of our **113-day European cruise aboard Sky Princess**, where we spent four months traveling around Europe and discovering the destinations along the way. 🇪🇸 **About WanderFree Retirees** We're Ed & Mai, early retirees who sold our home and set out to travel the world.
