34 European Airports That Turn Layovers Into a Mini-Vacation
17. Málaga Airport: Picasso & Mediterranean Sunshine
A layover in Málaga, Spain, isn’t just a stop—it’s an invitation to bask in the Mediterranean sun. In four to six hours, you can take a 15-minute train ride to the city’s historic center, where you’ll find the stunning Alcazaba Fortress, an old Moorish palace with incredible sea views. Art lovers should head to the Picasso Museum, dedicated to Málaga’s most famous son. If you’re craving a quick dip in the sea, Malagueta Beach is a short walk from the city center. Back at the airport, don’t miss a bite of churros con chocolate—a local favorite!
