About 1625, an exceptional traveller, Pedro Texeyra Albernas, a Portuguese Knight of the Order of Christ, accredited Topographer with great experience in scientific expeditions, visited Malaga on an official mission acting as a specialist in cartographic and navigational matters. He left a record of his presence in Malaga in two descriptions, one on the capital, of great value to the human geography of that time; and the other, of a general nature, concerning the peninsular coast, in which he provides a precise analysis of what is now called the "Costa del Sol", insisting in a particular manner on its defense system.
