Spring Market Pier One

Pier One (Muelle Uno) in the port of Málaga is always buzzing with activity. Just a few metres from the historic centre of Malaga, it’s worth taking a stroll to this urban space open to the sea, which also houses several shops and a Michelin-starred restaurant.

In the colourful spring market located in the Plaza Principal you can find everything, visit it! Open every day until 8 May from 10 am to 10 pm.
