Nerja property & accommodation

Nerja

Boasting 16kms of beaches, there are sweeping views up and down the coast from the rocky promontory known as El Balcon de Europa (the Balcony of Europe). Along it runs a promenade lined with cafes and restaurants.

East of the town are the Cuevas de Nerja, a series of vast caverns which were discovered in 1959. Wall paintings found here are believed to be about 20,000 years old. Only a few of the many cathedral-sized chambers are open to public view. One of these has been converted into an impressive auditorium which has a capacity of several hundred people.

There is a plentiful supply of water-sports available here, including water-skiing, scuba-diving and sailing.
