  • Tip Rating:
  • If you're looking to hop on the internet while in Nerja to check your e-mail or to get some information on your next destination then make your way to a little computer shop called Digi. They have about 6 PCs, very reasonable prices (about €1 for an hour) and very friendly service.

    Views from Balcon de Europa
  • Tip Rating:
  • However, the heart of Nerja is its spectacular Balcón de Europa, the "Balcony of Europe".

    Look the panoramic views of the Mediterranean and the small caves and beaches below. And what about the mountains.... love them

    Look that views..... the Mediterranean and the small coves and beaches below and the mountains at the end.

    Balcon de Europa
  • Tip Rating:
  • The heart of Nerja is its spectacular Balcón de Europa, a great promenade along the edge of a towering cliff, once the site of a Moorish castle.

    Wonderfull panoramic views of the Mediterranean (see travelogue) and the small coves and beaches below, against an awesome backdrop of hazy blue mountains.

    Beach by Acapulco Apartments
  • Tip Rating:
  • Well, this beach (I am pretty sure this is called 'Carabeo Beach' ) is just a climb down from the Acapulco Apartments. and never crowded in late May.

    There is a friendly little bar half way up/down for refreshment and further along, the beach restaurants of Burriana beach.

    Lovely!

    The climb back up (steps) is a little hard for in the heat if you are not a good walker.

    Never had to hurry.
    Lazy days, good food and late nights.

    Bar Boni. A bar that never opened.
  • Tip Rating:
  • I simply must tell you about this bar that although being purpose built as a bar near the coach station, never opened and is still empty today.
    Perhaps it's the name of the bar. "Boni", or BONY, if you like. You see, it's location is close to the CEMETARY !, which means that, unwittingly, the Spanish have a sense of humour here, or so it would seem.

    The bar is located on a quiet back street and probably has very little chance of being opened. At least until the train station is built at Nerja. Then, with increased number of people arriving, it may become a desireable place to open as also may the closed bar called the 'Bus Stop'.

    I have a large section on the bars of Nerja on my Nightlife (Link) section.

    BALCON DE EUROPA
  • Tip Rating:
  • The heart of Nerja is its spectacular BALCON DE EUROPA or Balcony of Europe, which is a magnificent promenade along the edge of a towering cliff, with sweeping panoramic views of the Mediterranean Sea, the small coves and beaches below and the dramatic mountain range - Sierra Almijara.
    The Balcon area was originally known as La Bateria in reference to the gun battery which existed there in a fortified tower. It was built in 1487 on the site of a 9th century Moorish Fortress.
    The Promenade is lined with palm trees and benches - a real "people" place. On the afternoon we were there, we were treated to a parachutist who was trying to land at the end of the Balcon (Photo 3) . He didn't have much luck as it was quite windy that day. It was still quite fun watching him maneuver his parachute over the cliffs and through the air.

    CHURCH OF EL SALVADOR - 1697 - XVII
  • Tip Rating:
  • Completed in 1697 the CHURCH OF EL SALVADOR has three naves with square supports and round vaults. The exterior features a four sided bell tower built in 1724.
    The interior features a contemporary mural by Francisco Hernandez Dias, which depicts the "Annunciation" set on one of Nerja's beaches.

    OLD QUARTER
  • Tip Rating:
  • The OLD QUARTER if Nerja is still unchanged with narrow, winding streets and whitewashed houses. As you stroll through town, you can't help but feel the excitement of this bustling town. Wonderful tapas bars, brimming with people, mostly standing room only. Wonderful shops! I had no idea Nerja was such a tourist favourite. The last time we were here ( in 2001 ) we did not even visit the town as we visited the Nerja Caves. I'm so glad Hans and I had the opportunity to come here and to top it off, we were with our very special friends. Who could ask for more!!!
