Nerja is a coastal gem of the Axarquía region, best known for the Balcony of Europe, a stunning clifftop viewpoint lined with palm trees. The town blends historic sites like the Águila Aqueduct and the Church of El Salvador with lively central beaches and local restaurants. Those in search of peace can explore the cliffs of Maro, where quiet coves invite visitors to relax, snorkel or kayak in crystal-clear waters.
