Walking trees in Velez!

At each end of a small tree-lined walkway near the town centre of Velez-Malaga, known as the Paseo de Andalucía, are what we generally call the “Walking trees” and they are certainly worth a look.

Day trip: Nerja caves, Frigiliana and the lost village of Acebuchal

Visit the world famous caves, following by a stroll through the picturesque nearby village of Frigiliana, maybe a spot of lunch, and on to a lost mountain village full of surprises!

Day trip to Lake Bermejales returning via Almuñecar

This is a day trip for lovers of beautiful, unspoilt and spectacular countryside, devised to offer you a taster of real, natural Spain in a round trip that you will not forget!

This lovely town is totally trapped in time! It still has very old fashioned little shops and lovely, crumbling buildings that look more central European than Southern Spanish! Perched precariously on steep, deep ‘tajo’ (gorge), this is a most ‘visitable’, picturesque town, frequented by walking groups and curious tourists and well worth a day trip.

Playa del Cañuelo

As a beach, top marks, in our opinion!!

Quiet, secluded, and a snorkeling paradise!

Granada city and the Albaicin

If you are visiting Southern Spain, the wonderful, inspiring and once-in-a-lifetime experience that is a visit to Granada’s glistening jewel, the Alhambra Palace, MUST be on your list! And much, much more besides in this fascinating and ancient city.

Río Chillar – a river walk

Río Chillar is a river walk with a difference – you walk IN THE RIVER!!

Shopping in Vélez-Málaga

This is not a bad place to shop!

First and most obvioulsy, a 7 minute drive in the direction of the coast, from Escuela La Crujia will take you to the El Ingenio shopping centre.

Chiringuito Beach Bars

The Costa del Sol is famous for its beach bars, known here as Chiringuitos. They are well worth trying out, and vary from simple barbequed sardines to meat on skewers, to simply chill-out bars.
