La Cala del Moral Beach

Highlight • Beach

The name “La Cala del Moral” comes from the Spanish word moral, which means “mulberry tree”, as these trees used to be common in the area. The town has a close connection with fishing, which is reflected in local traditions and dishes. Historically, it was an important part of the defence of the coast, with several towers and other military constructions designed to protect against pirate raids. In addition to beach experiences, La Cala del Moral has many restaurants offering local specialties such as grilled fish (espeto de sardinas) and seafood.

The Rincón de la Victoria tunnels were excavated in the rock for the old train that connected Málaga with Vélez-Málaga. That train, popularly known as La Cochinita, transported passengers and goods until it stopped running in 1960. Today, crossing these tunnels is a curious way to glimpse the railway history of the Málaga coast, with sea views between one section and another.

Torre del Cantal

Highlight • Monument

The Cantal tower is an old watchtower located on a rocky promontory, about 30 meters above the sea. Of Nasrid or Moorish origin, it was part of the coastal defense system and was used to warn of possible pirate attacks by means of smoke or fire signals. Today it is protected as a Site of Cultural Interest and is one of the best spots to enjoy the coastal views.

Virgen del Carmen Promenade

Highlight • Trail

The Paseo Virgen del Carmen in Rincón de la Victoria is a particularly picturesque stretch of the seafront promenade, extending along the rocky coast to the cliffs of El Cantal. The path offers magnificent views of the Mediterranean Sea, and at its end, a small chapel is nestled into the rocks.

This section of the Paseo Virgen del Carmen thus impressively combines nature, faith, and art – ideal for a peaceful moment by the sea, especially at sunset when the rocks and the sea are bathed in golden light.

Skulptur "Delfine am Meer".

Highlight • Monument

The sculpture ensemble "Dolphins by the Sea" by artist Salvador Gómez Escaño is located on the Rincón de la Victoria seafront and was inaugurated in March 2024. It is a work that symbolizes the close relationship between the coastal town, the sea, and its natural environment. The inscription emphasizes that the beaches are more than just water and sand – they are places of life and inspiration. Their preservation is seen as a duty, their enjoyment as a privilege. With this ensemble, the town of Rincón de la Victoria honors the importance of the sea to the life of the community and simultaneously sets an artistic example of environmental awareness and connection to the coast.

Rincón de la Victoria Beach

Highlight • Beach

Rincón de la Victoria beach, with its clear and shallow waters, stretches for seven kilometers, making it one of the longest beaches on the Costa del Sol. A special highlight of this route are the former railway tunnels that run through the cliffs and offer unique views of the coast. The combination of beach and bike path, combined with magnificent views, makes this tour along the coast particularly attractive.

A very beautiful stretch of road, in the region of Rincón de la Victoria, the EV8 runs along the coast and offers cyclists impressive views of the sea. The route passes through picturesque coastal towns and connects historical and cultural sites. The combination of the Paseo de la Marina and the EV8 makes it possible to explore the coastal landscape of Rincón de la Victoria by bike while always enjoying the view of the beach and the sea.
