Malaga – one of Europe’s sunniest cities

If you’re looking to swap grey skies for blue, Malaga is officially one of Europe’s sunniest cities! According to the latest data from World Weather Online*, Malaga has an average of 279.3 hours of sunshine per month. That puts it in third place among the sunniest cities in Europe, ahead of hotspots like Seville, Madrid, and even the Greek capital, Athens.

Malaga isn’t the only Andalucian city to make the list. Almeria (1st place) and Seville (4th place) also rank among the sunniest, proving that this region of Spain enjoys exceptional weather year-round. However, while inland locations like Seville boast an average temperature of 19+ degrees Celsius, this accounts for the intense summer heat without the respite of the sea. Malaga, with its coastal breeze, offers a more comfortable climate for year-round living.
