Selected pickup city: Malaga
Málaga is both the Costa del Sol's largest city and its main airport hub, with a historic center — Roman theatre, Moorish Alcazaba fortress, Picasso's birthplace — compact enough to see on foot before picking up a car for the coast in either direction. Marbella lies about 45 minutes southwest, and the whitewashed hill town of Antequera roughly an hour inland.
The Alcazaba and the Gibralfaro castle above it give a layered view of the city's Roman, Moorish and later history in a single walk up the hillside. Antequera, inland, has its own dolmens (prehistoric burial mounds, a UNESCO site) and sits near El Torcal's unusual limestone rock formations, a genuinely different landscape from the coast.
The AP-7 and A-7 run along the Costa del Sol both directions from Málaga, toward Marbella and Estepona southwest or Nerja and Almería northeast. Inland, the A-45 climbs toward Antequera through drier, hillier terrain, a clear contrast to the coastal resort strip.
Málaga's airport handles heavy summer traffic, so allow extra time for pickup during peak arrival periods. The historic center has vehicle restrictions on some pedestrian streets; park on the edge and walk in rather than trying to drive through it.
