Port of Malaga

Malaga is a strategic port for transatlantic crossings because it is the nearest port to the Canaries and Funchal. Also cruises starting from Southampton often choose this port as a port of call (although other companies also stop at Cadiz or Gibraltar). The port of Malaga is quite comfortable and has a modern terminal that can accommodate large cruise ships at the end of the dock and medium-sized ships close to the terminal with figer access. If you can spend a couple of days before the cruise and visit the city, you can check our review of Malaga

GETTING TO THE PORT. The port entrance is about 500 meters from Larios Street (city center), which makes this port very comfortable. The cruise terminal is about 2 miles from the entrance of the port and there is a local shuttle-bus service that takes you to the ship for 2 € one way or € 3.50 roundtrip.


BUS SERVICE

AIRPORT. Malaga airport is equiped with all the facilities of an international airport. It is 11 kilometers away from the city center and it takes about 15 minutes at least by car / taxi (depending on traffic). There is also a bus strting from arrivals that leaves you near Larios Street

HOTELS.  The best option is to choose an hotel near Larios Street if you are flying the day before.

We'll give you three different options depending on your budget:
 
HOTEL VENECIA (cheap option). It is near Larios street and 5 minutes away from the port entrance. It is the cheap option for a night before or after the cruise
AC MALAGA PALACIO (expensive). It is located at the beginning of Larios Street. You can compare AC hotels to Four Seasons
PARADOR DE GIBRALFARO (the stylish choice). The Parador is located in the mountain of Gibralfaro with views over the city of Málaga and its port. Rooms with suspended Balconys with nice views. Its the best choice if you arrive a few days before the cruise and you intend to rent a car to visit Nerja, Marbella ...
