In Malaga, as in the rest of Spain, the dress code is quite casual and comfortable. However, locals tend to dress a little fancier when going out for the evening. In the summer, jeans, dressy tops, dresses or shorts are always a safe choice. For men, casual pants and shirts are always a good choice. Swimwear is generally limited to the beach or pool. It is also advisable to dress modestly when visiting religious sites to respect local customs.
