Parque Majuelo & Loro Sexi bird park
amapola66 Says: Parque Mahuelo and Loro Sexy birdpark are right next to each other. El parque Majuelo has a pretty botanical garden with sub-tropical plants from around the world many from Brasil and Cuba and ruins of the fish salting 'factory' which was founded by the Phoenicians in 4th...

El Horno Candida: Top food, great venue, bargain prices

Hotel Casablanca restaurant: Best pulpo
amapola66 Says: The Handsome Man and I really liked the restaurant at the Hotel Casablanca, although the Little Rock Chic & pal weren't so keen. The food was fresh, of a high quality and they had some excellent wines from all over Spain rather than just the Granada region. Service was...
malcolm.elwell Says: There are two beach bars in this area near a very small children’s fair. The smaller one only has outside seating and serves beer in plastic glasses. There is an old rowing boat filled with sand where the sardines and gambas are grilled. The food is excellent, it is a great...
Taberna Flamenca " EL QUEJÍO": Genuine flamenco bar/restaurant
amapola66 Says: *Sadly, when we visted August 2010, this bar was closed. I'm not sure if that's permenant or not*This is a authentic flamenco bar which used to be run by Ricardo who is a very talented flamenco guitarist from a gypsy family, although I don't think he is the owner of this...
Venta Luciano: Barbecue and flamenco cabaret
amapola66 Says: A short and reasonably priced taxi ride took us out to a local flamenco restaurant /cabaret spot.I wouldn't say it was really flamenco at all the night we went, rather flamenco cabaret, but it is a great family night out, with a LOT of food in the way of an outside barbecue,...

Vinos y Licores!: Vinos y Licores
amapola66 Says: Actually, this little shop is packed full of loads of things as well as the vios y licores. In the center of the old town, right on the edge of the square, it is rather handy if you want to grab a few bits to take home without having to do 'a shop'. As well as some regional...
Fiesta de la Virgen de la Antigua
amapola66 Says: We have enjoyed this August fiesta for Almunecar's patron saint a few times now. It is incredibly well organised in the usual chilled-out style and fashion of the region. The week long fiesta is usually in the 2nd week of August, (book early if you want a hotel room) and...
Fiesta de la virgen de Antigua & feria
amapola66 Says: August fiesta and feria in Almunecar is a week long party. There are a variety of events ending in an extremely spectacular firework display at the end of the week (15th Aug). The fireworks are really something else. We have seen many firework displays in Spain, but this has...
amapola66 Says: *Please note - No jellyfish invasion that we could see summers 2009/2010 *The Med (and apaprently many others seas so I've read) have in recent years had large invasions of jellyfish coming to the shore making a total nuicance of themsleves and interrupting the joy of...
amapola66 Says: Popped into Marina del Este for breakfast on our recent visit. It's kind of classy, a quiet place, with alot of villas and apartments and nice boats bobbing about in a pretty port. There's small beach 'Playa de los Berengueles' which boasts a chiriguito, interesting rocks...
amapola66 Says: We always visit Salobrena when in the Almunecar area. It has a quirky charm that we always enjoy and has one of our favourite beaches. To the right of the penon (rock) as you are facing the sea, there is a lovely little cove surrounded by sugar cane. It's a pebble beach, but...
amapola66 Says: Playa de Maro is an unspoiled beach just before you reach Nerja from Almunecar. It's slightly isolated and you reach it by an unmade road. There is a tiny chiriguito and not much else except lovely unspoilt views! A friendly little place, not suitable for those with limited...

Hilltop town on the Costa Tropical
One of the 'white villages' on the Costa Tropical, east of Malaga. There is actually quite a bit to see and do here. Apparently far cheaper than Nerja, its prettier, more famous neighbour along the......

Had a lovely day out here. Purchased a family ticket. PArking is a problem in Alumunecar. As you pass the waterpark you will find car parks at either side. I belive the cost was 2 euros, well worth...
