Nerja
You will feel right at home in the town of Nerja (20,000
inhabitants). The picturesque spot is situated about
50 kilometers (31 miles) from Málaga on Spain's
southern coast, which is not called the "Costa
del Sol" for nothing. Nerja boasts about 3,500
hours of sunlight annually. Year round, temperatures
range from 90 degrees in the summer and 60 degrees in
the winter, making for a very pleasant climate.
Surrounded by the Sierra Almijarra mountains as well
as 10 miles of sandy beaches, Nerja entices many visitors,
but has luckily remained undiscovered by mass tourism.
A highlight of the location is the "Cuevas de Nerja,"
the prehistoric stalactite caves dating from the Stone
Age. And there are other remnants of the over 30,000-year-old
settlement in Nerja. Today, the Andalusian style
dominates not only the houses, but the traditions of
the city as well. Inhabitants and visitors happily celebrate
Carnival, Easter, and other traditional holidays together.
