Following last week's heatwave, parts of Malaga province have been put on yellow alert due to strong winds and waves that will hit the province's coastal areas.

Aemet, the Spanish weather agency, issued the warning which will be active from 3pm until midnight.

The forecast is for strong, southeasterly winds of up to force 7 hitting the coast, which could cause waves of up to two or three metres high.

The affected areas are the Costa del Sol, Malaga City and Axarquía.
