Citorah says
La Araña, the city’s easternmost district, is a fishing quarter where boats and gear on the sand are a usual sight, and the council says it’s known for the fish at its beach bars and restaurants. The beach is 500 m long, with showers but no toilets listed. At its far end, about 600 m between the Totalán stream and the start of Rincón de la Victoria’s promenade is the city’s dog beach.

Peñón del Cuervo
Citorah says Peñón del Cuervo is split in two by a rock formation. Concerts and moragas are held here, and it has an area set up for barbecues. It’s also a protected site for the siempreviva malagueña, an endangered plant, so keep to the sand.
