The coastline between Nerja´s Burriana beach and Maro is breathtaking with natural waterfalls, secluded beaches and caves, a great way to see it is with a group kayak tour. Groups leave from the far (East end) of Burriana beach several times a day from April to Oct. Also canyoning, paddle surf, snorkeling, parasailing, hiking, bike riding and jeep safari.
One of the most spectacular walks in our area. You must book well in advance.
Boat trips Sail from La Caleta (15min drive direction Malaga) or from Marina del Este (15min drive direction Almeria) and either search for dolphin pods in the open ocean or explore the rugged coastline between Nerja and Maro. Some companies can also organise meals and live musicians onboard.
