"Nerja" Nerja by kentishgirl

Nerja Travel Guide: 319 reviews and 772 photos

Nerja is my favourite place in Spain, I much prefer this side of Malaga to the otherside being the traditional "Costa Del Sol".

Nerja is a fairly small town, yes it has tourists but is not over run live the Costa resorts.

It is Very Spanish and it very quaint.
The beaches are wonderful, the people are soooo friendly,and the wine and food are cheap!

The weather is generally good all year round, I visited in December and it averaged 65 F everyday, I could even enjoy a dip in the sea!

Pros and Cons

Pros:People,Weather,Cost,Quaintness.
Cons:Quite hilly
In a nutshell:Beautiful - will visit again

Last visit to Nerja: Dec 1998

I'd never heard of Nerja before - it looks a lovely place to go, more Spanish than touristy. Excellent page!
