Nerja & Torrox
The best streets out here never reach the portals — Torrox runs quieter and cheaper still, a few minutes up the coast.
A cliff-top town, with quieter Torrox next door.
Nerja is where the Costa del Sol slows down, at the coast’s eastern end. It averages €3,852/m² (2026), and its best streets never reach the portals — I walk them weekly. A few minutes back along the coast, Torrox runs cheaper still and quieter, at €3,123/m².
Málaga airport (AGP) 45–55 minutes east along the coast, or 35–40 to Torrox. See it in context on the Costa del Sol Map, or read the town-by-town numbers below.
