Nerja Things to Do Tips by stickynickyuk

You have to Visit Nerja Caves, Such a beautiful strange place,it's Just a few kilometres from Nerja. There lies one of the most important and oldest symbol of Spanish heritage in the country; the Nerja caves. Millions of years old and containing the oldest cave paintings in the country, The cave centre is very well organised and able to cope with the huge amount of visitors. You will find an informative visitors centre, a restaurant and bar, a lovely gift shop and well organised parking(where you can park your car in shaded areas). There is also a very nice play area for children.
These are breathtaking beautiful caves, Each July a festival of flamenco music and dance is held inside the caves.
Scientists investigating cave fauna have recently discovered species that were thought to be extinct in the caves. Amongst these, in areas not open to the public, are scarab beetles and blind scorpions. Alberto Atinavt, department head at the University of Granada, is carrying out studies on the interior and exterior micro fauna of the cave
you would be silly to pass this, you must visit, me and Gee couldnt believe how beautiful it was inside and the smell of the place with all the paintings ~~~

One of the most popoular spots within the town of Nerja is the Balcón de Europa, built on the previous site of a 10th century castle, it just hangs over the cliffs and beaches to gain better advantage of the spectactular views.
High arches and trees shade horses and carts that are transport around the town.
Ancient cannons, which once spurned forth pirates and invaders, stand guard and add a touch of history.
The parish church of El Salvadoris beautiful, this is in the same area, its 17th century Baroque-Mudejar which has recently been restored.

You have to go scuba diving if you visit any warm country ~ Id previously been diving and lucky enough to have be trained as a child by my step/dad as he was an instructor~
But going with Barny was such great fun

Not only is he down to earth but he will give you and your friends and family what it is you want from your experience~~
being it a daytime dive
or nightime for more experienced divers
you really cant miss out on this great adventure it is after all
Another world under there

me and Gee did a few dives one of which was on the beach of Playa de Cantarrijan
this was a beautiful nudist beach not for all ~~ Smiles ~~A lovely beach with some excellent bars and taverns. A lively setting with a variety of music. It is reached via a very precarious cliff track (wide enough for one car) desending at a very steep rate - not for the nervous.
I didnt like it at all but it was worth it ~~ when you got down to the beach ~~
It is used as the base for one of Scubanerja's dive sites - a very beautiful setting

The marine life includes octopus, conger, moray, lobster, grouper, weaverfish moonfish, dasmil, wrasse, scorpion fish, salifish, swordfish, dolphin, silverfish, nudibranchis, flowers, faunas and corals.
