I'll be arriving in Tarifa from Tangier on Thursday 21st September at around noon and flying out of Malaga on Monday 25th September at 14:40. Am considering various places to stay throughout this period...Tarifa, Cadiz, Marbella, Malaga. My interests are: half a day at the beach, not too much wind, seafood, somewhere to have a drink in the evening, a historical site or two. I'm m/36 and will be traveling solo using public transport. How should I allocate my time among the cities I mentioned?

In that time I would do Tarifa and Malaga. Marbella is an ex pat resort. Cadiz is the wrong way and with your limited time a bit out of the way.
...or even all of it in Malaga ;-)
Cadiz is nice but the wrong way.Marbella is extremely uninteresting unless you are a wealthy foreigner with a yacht.
Tarifa is....windy.
