Malaga, the hottest city in Europe this Saturday

March 29, 2025 will not be a historic date in Málaga, but it can certainly be described as a scorching day. The capital of the Costa del Sol was not only the hottest city in Spain, reaching 28.3 degrees Celsius at noon at the port's weather station, but also the hottest in all of Europe.

Data provided by the State Meteorological Agency (Aemet) confirm the sensations experienced by the people of Málaga who went out on the streets this Saturday and filled the beach bars and beaches. Records from Meteo365, which features global temperature maps, show that Málaga was the hottest city in Europe this Saturday.

However, today's temperature of 28.3 degrees is far from the historical record for March. In 1988, the mercury rose to 31.4 degrees. Not just in Málaga city. Other cities in the province also experienced high temperatures.

In fact, Torremolinos is the second hottest city nationally, with a recorded temperature of 28 degrees. Lanzarote follows in third place, with 27.2 degrees.

On the other end of the thermal experiences in Spain, the coldest city this Saturday was Cap de Vaquèira (Lleida), at -10.7 degrees.
