Explore the Avenida del Mar, an important avenue in Marbella that leads to the Mediterranean Sea. This artery connects Marbella Marina with the Parque de la Alameda, designed in the nineteenth century. In the central part of the avenue, there are nine surrealist sculptures by the famous artist Salvador Dalí. Built from smaller originals, the sculptures turn this promenade into a real open-air museum. The sculptures include ‘Hombre sobre delfín’, ‘Don Quijote sentado’, ‘Mujer desnuda subiendo’, ‘Elefante Cósmico’, ‘Caballo con jinete tropezando’, ‘Gala asomada a la ventana’, ‘Mercurio’, ‘Gala Gradiva’ and ‘Perseo’. The statue called ‘Libertad’ completes this exhibition and is found alone at the entrance to Puerto Banús.

Spend a day exploring Málaga, the capital city of the province of Málaga.
