Museo Ralli Marbella

World-class Latin American art — completely free

One of Marbella's best-kept secrets: a serious contemporary art museum sitting quietly by the sea in Coral Beach, and it costs nothing to walk in. The Ralli museums collect Latin American and European contemporary art, and the Marbella branch shows rotating exhibitions of painting and sculpture — Dalí and Miró prints alongside living Latin American masters — in a bright, calm building with a sculpture patio. It is never crowded, the staff are lovely, and it is the perfect cultural pause between beach days.

What

Where
