In Marbella, Malaga

On the West of Malaga and the airport we find the developments Torremolinos, Fuengirola, Marbella and lastly Estepona. On the East lies the Axarquia area. The coast here is rockier and the towns of Rincon de la Victoria, Torre del Mar and Nerja are more isolated.

The coast is backed by a series of mountains that have to be crossed to reach the inland fertile valleys. The main A92 motorway runs inland from Malaga to Antequera, which connects to Seville, Cordoba and Granada, the C339 winds inland from San Pedro to Ronda and on to Seville.

Natural areas worth visiting are the Serranva de Ronda and all its pretty white villages peppered across the landscape. The Sierra de la Nieves and Montes de Malaga natural parks, the El Torcal park with its unusual rock formations that credit it with being some of the most beautiful and impressive limestone landscapes in Europe. El Chorro is Malaga's lake district. La Fuente de la Piedra is often called the pink lagoon.
