Whether your little ones would rather build sandcastles on sweeping Spanish beaches, slide their way around wet and wild waterparks or even wander fascinating ancient walls, budget-friendly family holidays to Malaga promise endless fun in the sun!
Add to that mix opportunities to go whale watching, banana boating, churro chomping, souvenir shopping and Picasso staring, and you can begin to understand why Malaga is easily one of the most family-friendly destinations in the Costa del Sol (if not all of Andalusia). It’s all just under three hours away from the UK, too.

Book a family-friendly holiday near the historic centre of Malaga for easy access to the warm and welcoming waters of La Malagueta beach. When your Vit D is all topped up, take the fam to Muelle Uno at the port for galleries, museums, arcades, VR simulators and a bowling lane or two.
Malaga’s resort towns don’t come much more family-fun-packed than Torremolinos. Expect kid-friendly hotels, restaurants and beaches, as well as crowd-pleasing attractions and experiences. Check out the Parque de la Bateria and the Molino de Inca botanical garden – home to just under 1,000 species of plants!
Benalmadena is a bit of a family-fun machine. Say hello to seals at Sea Life or make even more marine mates at Selwo Marina – we’re talking dolphins, sea lions, penguins and more. Kids still have some energy left in the tank? Tucker them out on Aqualand’s ferocious flumes.
