Maro

Maro is a hidden gem, a sleepy little village just 5 minutes drive from Nerja town centre. It is completely unspoilt by tourism, a rare find these days. Quaint little streets, whitewashed village houses and balconies overflowing with flowerpots all add to the charm of Maro.

Along the ‘Balcon de Maro’, little cafes and bars will serve you with a glass of vino and tapas - a relaxing place to sit and watch the sun going down over the glistening waters of the Mediterranean.

Away from the crowds, Maro’s beach and turquoise blue waters are without doubt a fabulous place for bathing and snorkeling.

The villagers of Maro certainly know how to enjoy themselves! Amongst the many festivals in the area, San Isidro in May and the Feria in September are a showpiece and definitely not to be missed!

Back in 1959, children playing, discovered the now internationally renowned ‘Caves of Nerja’. With its network of caves, ancient cave paintings and music festivals held within the caves during July and August, it is a ‘must see’ for any visitor.
