Private cycling route Malaga

Private cycling route through Malaga

We present you one of our most special experiences: a half-day themed bike tour around Malaga. By practising a healthy activity you will discover Malaga’s long fishing tradition and its close relationship with the Mediterranean Sea.

Walking along the promenade we will discover its two quintessential fishing quarters: the Pedregalejo neighbourhood and the Palo neighbourhood.

In Pedregalejo we will visit a very special shipyard, listed as Historical Industrial Heritage of Spain. A unique place where, for centuries, the most characteristic fishing boat of Malaga has been built, among others: the “jábega”.

Here, as well as visiting their workshops and seeing some of their boats that are real gems, we will learn about some of the construction techniques that have endured over the centuries and have been passed down from generation to generation.

In El Palo you will discover the variety of fish that inhabit the coast of Malaga, the different fishing techniques and much of the history surrounding this ancient profession.

We can’t say goodbye without trying one of the most characteristic things in Malaga: the art of espetos.
On the beach you will learn how to prepare your own espeto de sardinas from a real master espetero. And best of all, you’ll eat it while enjoying wonderful views of the Mediterranean accompanied by a fresh salad and a good wine or a glass of beer.

To finish, we will return with our bicycles to the starting point.
