El Balneario has to be Malaga’s most iconic bar and restaurant.
Poking out from the seafront, at Baños del Carmen, just as Pedregalejo begins, punters get unparalleled views of the Bay of Malaga (and the occasional dolphin!).
Enjoy the holiday, seaside vibes with a beer, copa or cocktail, day or night, or tuck into a nice lunch.
The menu has a wide variety of grilled fish, rice dishes (including paella) and of course the famous sardine skewers, grilled on an open fire.
