Favorite Thing: 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'.
Fondest Memory: I have a large section on the bars of Nerja on my Nightlife (Link) section.

General Tips: Balcon de Europa.

Favorite Thing: When. (I say WHEN because EVERYBODY who visits Nerja has to see, at least once, the Balcon de Europa.) Anyway, when you take in the view from the Balcon, (Balcony of Europe), you may wonder at the life size bronze statue at the seaward end.
This is a statue of King Alfonso XII of Spain. He was the king who, upon visiting Nerja, stated that it was "The balcony of Europe" and lo and behold the Balcon as it stands now was built upon the ruins of a sixteenth century castle.

Favorite Thing: The General Post office, or Correos, is located on Calle Almirante Ferrandiz; which is better known by the English ex Pat. locals AS Post Office Street for that very reason.
Its location is just up from the Balcon de Europa (right hand fork).
Be prepared to wait in a queue if you need to use the counter services.
