Even on a cloudy day, the views are spectacular. You can see for miles, and the water is crystal clear. The atmosphere is lively, with people strolling about, a guitarist adding a beautiful soundtrack, and a drone pilot capturing the scene from above. All in all, it feels absolutely magical.

31,607 total reviewsTook an early morning stroll here and it was peaceful and quiet with a busker playing the guitar in the background. Shame the weather was overcast but as a visitor, this one’s been ticked on our list of places to visit.
Absolutely loved it. Such a beautiful spot.
100% worth visiting – can’t wait to come back!
The best viewpoint of Nerja. There are 2 historic cannons and the place is lined with palm trees. Nice place to chill for a while.
Beautiful views. Can get busy in the afternoon. Go early morning to get a view and recharge of the soul!
