Nerja is a super choice for a winter holiday and not only for its mild all year round climate. The population of Nerja shrinks considerably in winter but as a working town, facilities remain excellent ranging from medical to social.

Many people choose to opt out of the misery of the drab British winters and come to this beautiful corner of Spain, some coming to stay for a month or two, others for much longer, thus avoiding the British winters totally.

If you are visiting for a holiday, you can enjoy the sun, sea and sand of the coast in the morning and then for those of you that are really active, the skiing ranges of the Sierra Nevada are just one and a half hours away.
