Nerja has been inhabited for about 30,000 years. It was occupied by the Romans, and later under the Abderraman rule it became an important locality, where the poets praised the beauty of Nariza, and the silk works. The benign climate, the beauty of its beaches, coves and cliffs have made the area very popular with tourists. Despite the tourist development, Nerja retains much of its spirit as a fishing village. The tourist can visit the rotunda ( Balcon de Europa ), which is situated on a cliff top, where once a castle stood. Today we can also still see the remains of the Roman road Castulo-Malaga. Other interesting sights are the church Iglesia Parroquial de Salvador and the hermitage Ermita de Nuestra Senora de las Angustias. In the district of Maro the tourist should visit the Ingenio and aquaduct, Acueducto de Aguila, the cliffs and of course the famous caves, Cuevas de Nerja - which is considered a prehistoric cathedral.

The most important celebrations are the 15th May, and the 10th October, the great procession of San Isidro, and in July the procession of the Virgen del Carmen. In summer, the local population usually celebrate international dance, music and Flamenco festivals in the caves.

The town, embraced by the beautiful Sierra Almijarra mountain range, is reputed to enjoy the finest climate in Europe; the famous Balcon de Europa reaches out to sea with superb views along the rugged coastline.
