The Balcón de Europa and the old town
Nerja's most famous viewpoint is a 11-minute walk from the Marimel Building. It juts out over the sea above the cliffs and is the perfect starting point for exploring the whitewashed streets of the centre, the church of El Salvador and the café terraces on the square.
Beaches within walking distance
The closest to the apartments is Carabeillo beach (9 min on foot), a sheltered cove below the cliffs. El Salón beach, next to the Balcón de Europa, is 13 minutes away, and Burriana, Nerja's widest beach with the most facilities, 14.
The Nerja Caves
7 minutes away by car (4.2 km) is one of the most visited caves in Spain, with monumental chambers and a music festival in summer. Check opening times and tickets on the official website before you go.
Frigiliana
11 minutes away by car, this village of cobbled streets and Moorish architecture is a must-see day trip. If you stay at Villa Marimel, it is only 2.3 km away.
Getting here
Málaga Airport is about 60 minutes away on the A-7 motorway (71 km). From the town-centre apartments you won't need a car to get around Nerja.
