About the area

Why people love Nerja

Nerja is the jewel of the eastern Costa del Sol. The charming town centre lies on cliffs above the sea, with the famous viewpoint Balcón de Europa, small coves and the popular Burriana beach. Behind the town rise the mountains of the Sierras de Tejeda, Almijara y Alhama natural park, and the famous Caves of Nerja are just outside town.

Nerja has kept its small-town atmosphere with whitewashed streets and no high-rise buildings in the centre. It is popular with northern Europeans all year, and homes here are in demand – both for living and for holiday rentals.

Who is it for?

Charm seekers – a white town by the sea
Nature lovers – mountains, coves and hiking routes
Holiday homes – popular with visitors all year
Winter living – mild climate and a walkable town

Our local tip

Start the day with breakfast at the Balcón de Europa, visit the Caves of Nerja before noon, and drive the 10 minutes up to Frigiliana for a late lunch. In summer, the walk in the Chíllar river is an experience you will not forget – bring shoes that can get wet.
