We went there with my friends from Italy, and i joined to guruwalk. Architecture and vintage shops were amazing. Also food was delicious. In Italy, cuisine is very traditional but in Barcelona they combined modern things with tradition. People were more open minded.
Posted: June 4, 2025My dad and his girlfriend went for 7 weeks to Spain. Hiking from Saint Jean Pied de Port to Santiago de Compestela. I traveled alone to Sarria to meet up with them and walk the last 100+km with them to Santiago. It was an amazing experience. The food was good, a lot of meat. The people there are very kind and I felt safe.

I stayed at the Coeo Hernan Ruiz Hostel, that offered a delicious breakfast, clean room and very comfortable beds. I didnt travel on a specific budget, but I did try to keep my expenses low, so I skipped museums and the cathedral. I very much enjoyed visiting the Alcazaba and Gibralfaro Castle, as well as walking through the beautiful old town and along the beach. I also did a daytrip to the caminito del rey and another to ronda and setenil de las bodegas, that I booked on Get your Guide and would definitely recommend if you want to see more than just Malaga. I used the trains to get there from the airpot. Easy to find and not too expensive.
Posted: June 2, 2025It is a really safe and cute little town. Very medieval, but not so much good weather in the winter so please come in the summer!! Really fun overall but for a short stay. The best nightclub is paniagua and all the restaurants around Plaza Mayor are amazing too
Posted: June 2, 2025soo: as a female solo traveller i felt overall safe, but: - i got robbed at the beach - not even only in the nights, but men are being pushy sometimes so always be careful and don’t think you’re too safe :))

We went for the first time and we loved it. you‘ll definitely need a car bc there are so many beautiful places to see. I was on a boat tour with FlounderSailing, we watched Dolphins and went snorkeling after that. The Beaches were amazing and every one of them was so different!

It's usually very safe everywhere, but at night I have experienced a few bad situations with men, one at 10 pm and another at midnight. One approached me asking for help to get home and wanted me to go with him but it was a lie, he wanted to take me with him, and another made comments about my body in the middle of the street.

In general, it is a peaceful and safe place, there are only some spots that are considered dangerous but not in the big cities or my neighborhood. There may be some strange people, but just avoid them and you'll be okay.
