Málaga is located in Spain’s southern region called Andalucía, and it is bathed by the Mediterranean Sea. With a population of over 600,000, its whole metropolitan area gathers nearly 900,000 inhabitants. Its strategic geographical situation, 150 kilometers east from the Strait of Gibraltar, has attracted the main Mediterranean cultures through the centuries. Founded by the Phoenicians in the VIII century B.C., Carthaginians, Romans, Byzantines, Visigoths and Arabs lived and left their legacies in our city before it joined the Spanish crown by the end of the XV century.

The weather in Málaga during the month of September is very pleasant, with average temperatures ranging from 17° C minimum and 27° C maximum, and with a very low probability of rain.

An outstanding road infrastructure and the harbor, with a continuously growing cruise traffic, complete the connections network of the city. A local train connects the airport to the centre of town, which is connected by public transport to the university area.
