Seaside town
Seaside town
Whitewashed houses climb a rock that rises straight from the coastal plain, with a Moorish fortress at the top — one of the most photographed towns on the whole Costa Tropical.
10th-century Alcazaba, with views over the sugar-cane fields and the coast.
Winding, whitewashed streets up the rock, decorated with flower pots.
The town was once one of Europe's biggest producers of sugar cane — still visible in the landscape.
Wide sandy beach at the foot of the rock, a short walk from the centre.
