Hi Folks,
Will be holidaying for two weeks over Xmas in Nerja. My partner and I are keen birdwatchers and wonder if there are any local guides/companies that provide jeep tours etc that we could book to birdwatch in the area?
Will NOT have own transport and dependent on guide providing same.
Would be very grateful for any assistance in finding guide/company to contact.
Thank you in anticipation.

Some of the most spectacular scenery can be seen if you leave the N340 and travel on the old coast road east of Nerja towards Salobrena. Although much of the land here ( and the sun-marine coastal belt) lies within an area of protected, special interest - the Paraje Natural Acantilados de Maro-Cerro Gordon - quite a few housing developments have taken place in recent years including individually designed large, luxury houses on the clffs and a small Urbanization, El Nogal near La Herradura.
Famous for its flora and fauna, very popular with bird watchers and walkers it is very much more visited now than whe we first came across the area on a walk near Maro.
There are a number of steep and winding roads that lead to the largely unspoilt coves and beaches with very limited or no parking at all, so only accessible on foot. One beautiful October day my husband took such a precipitous road; as it was out of season we were able to park when we reache the bottom -still on four wheels - but I had my doubts as to whether we would make it back up that 1 in 3 hill!
We did not however stay for a dip when we found ourselves on Cantarrijan, a nudist beach. A short walk further along the beach brought us to a regular beach.
When taking this road we found, by chance a restaurant with the most beautiful of views and excellent food. It was then run by a Swedish family and is now English owned with a very good reputation though we have not been there since it changed hands.

Very good food specialising in seafood. The restaurant overlooks the sea and there is an outside terrace. At night you can watch the lights of the fishing boats and listen to the crashing of the waves.
Staff are all Spanish but the menu is in English and German as well as Spanish. You can have just a drink or coffee here and the view during the day is lovely. Caldereta de arroz marine, a kind of seafood stew with rice
Nerja has 16 kms of coastline, much of it dotted with small sandy bays, ideal for that relaxing afternoon in the sun or dip in the sea for a cool down. Many have Chiringuitos, small restaurants the serve refreshments or the excellent grilled sardines cooked over a fire on the beach.
