A blue experience, with the sounds of the sea – El Palo Beach, East End 📷 Málaga – Spain

<div class="text-justify"> --- >Every part of the city has its own special charm; each one is distinct from the others, and the same goes for the beaches. Each has its own particular and unique style that sets it apart from the rest. Of course, you have to pay attention to the details. I think what makes each beach unique, out of the many there are, is not just the colour of the sand, but the neighbourhood to which it belongs. ---  --- I’ll start by saying that I think this is one of the beaches I’ve liked the most, because although it isn’t as remote as Peñón del Cuervo beach where there are no longer any houses and it’s on the outskirts of the city this one is very quiet and family friendly. It’s in another neighbourhood that used to be a fishing village, to the east of the city.

This reminds me of when I first arrived and my friend who lives in Argentina told me that the sand I was showing her, from La Malagueta beach, was just like the sand in the town where she lives, even though to me they looked very different. That sand was white or very light in colour, whereas the sand at El Palo beach is much darker and, in this case, does resemble the one she mentioned. It’s incredible how, within the same city, there are so many beaches that differ from one another. It’s a type of sand you can walk on without sinking, which doesn’t hurt your feet because it’s so soft, and where you can spend hours enjoying yourself. ---     --- The whole seafront promenade is full […]
