Nerja

Nerja is an top vacation destination in the Costa del Sol, one of the premiere locales in the province of Malaga. There are a wide variety of beaches, an array of amazing restaurants, and plenty of guest accommodations for the flood of international tourists who make their way to this Mediterranean paradise each and every year. You will find that there are virtually unlimited opportunities for fun in the sun. The gorgeous beaches are the backdrop for a multitude of activities, from scuba diving and snorkeling (which are particularly popular here because of the crystal waters) to sailing and fishing. There is something for people of all ages to enjoy. It is a luxury resort destination to be sure.

Playa Burriana can be accessed via a path all the way from the center of town. It is only about a 20-minute walk (and a breathtaking one at that) until you arrive at the pristine beach. This is by far the most popular and biggest beach in the city and offers a range of cafes, restaurants, gear and equipment rentals, and water sports. Playa Torrecilla affords a more relaxing and private experience. It is a fine beach located not far from the center of town that is ideal for families with small children because of the calm water and gentle surf. Playazo Beach is officially the longest beach in the city and offers a rugged appeal that makes it popular for water sports. It is less crowded and has fewer bars and restaurants but draws people here for picnics and walks for this very reason.

If you can peel yourself off of the white powdery sand of the Nerja Spain beaches, you may feel inclined to indulge in a fine gastronomic experience, of which there are many available in this city. The fresh seafood and authentic Mediterranean dishes, along with a regionally made glass of wine, are a perfect complement to a day in the sun in Nerja. There are all manners of resorts, hotels, and other guest accommodations, including vacation rentals in Nerja as well.
