Playa de El Palo, Málaga, Sandy beach in Este District, Málaga, Spain.
The Playa de El Palo extends along the Mediterranean coast with fine sand and clear waters suitable for swimming and water activities.
The beach area developed from a traditional fishing settlement, where local fishermen established their community and maritime activities in the nineteenth century.
Local restaurants called chiringuitos line the beach, preparing freshly caught fish on wooden boats converted into grills for the traditional espeto preparation.
The beach offers essential facilities including showers, restrooms, sun loungers for rent, and regular bus connections from central Málaga throughout the day.
Fishermen continue to maintain wooden fishing boats on the beach, using traditional methods to catch sardines and other Mediterranean fish species.
