Fish, small fish, shellfish and other delicacies from the Alboran Sea

Malaga has a fishing ground that serves to supply the Costa del Sol with its famous 'pecaíto'. Horse mackerel, sardines, anchovies or mullet are some of the products that pass from the Bay of Malaga to the beach bars or many Malaga homes. The conditions of the Alboran Sea, where the waters of the Mediterranean and the Atlantic practically meet, provide great biodiversity, known for being breeding and breeding areas for various marine species. Among these, one of the most commercial and identified with Málaga is the anchovy and the sardine, one of the species most closely linked to the coast of Málaga, thanks to the fact that it is served on the famous espeto, a traditional, ancestral way of roasting this blue fish in the heat of embers in boats filled with sand, in the beach bars and restaurants of the Malaga coast.
