With a volume of more than 100,000 m3 and a surface covering 9,371 m2, the Tourist galleries represent approximately one-third of the cave. The cave has been used as a habitat, a burial site and for cultural expression. There are remnants testifying to the passage of hunters, gatherers and fishermen from more than 30,000 years ago. The General Visit starts with the screening of a audiovisual presentation in which you will be able to see spectacular details of the cave (10 minutes). Then an audio-guided visit through the different chambers of the Cave, in a pleasant walk of about 45 minutes where you will discover the many secrets the grotto keeps (audio-guided in Spanish, English, German, French, Italian and Russian). When the cave closes its doors, a small group of privileged people can enter the mystery of the underworld to enjoy the magnificence and beauty of the cave, and discover its secrets. You can choose between three modalities of Exclusive Tours

We went to Nerja for a day trip from Malaga and we had a great time visiting the cave, it is amazing, we followed the tour guide and he explain everything about it also with an audio guide, very recommended visit . After the cave we went to Nerja town and visit the Museum which is very modern and interesting. Nerja is a very quiet town and everyone is friendly.

The beach has beautiful sand--tiny, rounded rocks that you sink your feet into and let the ocean massage. Like a spa in the sun. And good foot showers so you can clean off and not track the sand into your car. Ummmm.

We did a track fron El Canuelo to Playa Cantarrijan. Amazing beaches, very interesting track (not always well signed) and outstanding views. Worth spending a day while in Nerja. One of the highlights of our trip. Moderate level track difficulty.

This aquaduct is only 5 mins from the Nerja caves so you can get the local bus to the caves and just walk back down the hill to see it. We walked here from the centre of Nerja in 35 mins theres a footpath that goes all the way and some great views.
