There begins a fantastic walk inside the space called El Palmeral de las Sorpresas, a beautiful park and a large, emblematic and very characteristic pergola of modern construction in the shape of waves, along the entire walk, to shelter visitors from the strong sun, and which gives the promenade its main image.

Antonio Machado Promenade

Antonio Banderas Promenade

Once we reach the end of the Antonio Machado promenade in a small park with the same name, we find its continuation, another promenade that, with some similarities and differences, and forming a team with a small part of San Andrés Beach, It is named after the famous actor from Malaga.

Misericordia Beach Promenade

Following the Antonio Banderas Promenade, the next sector is formed by the Paseo de la Playa de la Misericordia, which finally ends at the so-called Playa de Sacaba, before reaching the Guadalhorce River.

Paseo de la Farola

On the other side of the Port of Malaga, that is, on the Eastern Side, on the East or, also called, Where the Levante originates, we find the beginning of the Paseo de La Farola, which runs to the famous lighthouse called “La Farola de Málaga”, surrounded by restaurants and the beginning of multiple delightful trails of different types, worthy of the best selfies.

Matías Prats promenade

This part of the walk, which you can enjoy if you continue towards the end of the pier from the La Farola lighthouse, or you can skip if you return to the anchor roundabout and continue straight east along the Paseo Marítimo Ciudad de Melilla, is a small area of the promenade that starts at the beginning of Malagueta Beach, and will accompany the promenade at all times in different sections.

City of Melilla Promenade

The name of this promenade corresponds to that of the city that was dependent on Malaga until 1995, the year in which it proclaimed its independence and became an autonomous city. It runs from Paseo de Matías Prats along a part of La Malagueta beach until it reaches the section of Paseo de Pablo Ruíz Picasso.

Pablo Ruíz Picasso seafront promenade

This section of the promenade erroneously called “Paseo de La Malagueta” for the simple fact that it runs along the beach of the same name, is one of the most beautiful sections of the promenade, with the addition that it has different parks and green areas, all surrounded by the greatest comforts and all the necessities for a perfect vacation stay.

This promenade goes on until you get beyond the great beach of La Malagueta, specifically to the beach called Playa de Pedregalejo, with its well-known breakwaters, next to Baños del Carmen, to which we have dedicated a section in our blog, and through which the Paseo del Pedregal runs.

You can continue walking along the entire promenade that follows El Palo Beach and the following ones, immediately after El Pedregal, even passing Peñón del Cuervo, and the aforementioned Paseo de los Canadienses, being able to walk until your feet tell you that’s been enough, suggesting that you return to the accommodation.
