The old Moorish village remains intact and is characterised by the imposing old castle, the blindingly white building block houses and winding narrow streets. When you take a summer holiday to Torrox old town you’ll be able to meander sedately around for hours drinking in the authentic Andalucían atmosphere, viewing Moorish and Spanish architecture before stopping off in the central square for the predictable but refreshing jug of Sangria. Sit back, relax and decide if the next step of your Torrox summer holiday takes you walking in the impressive Sierra Almijara or down to the seafront.

Naturally the beach plays a big part in any summer holiday to Torrox. Costa Torrox is a fabulous 3km blue flag quality sandy beach with excellent amenities on and off water and the perfect palm shaded promenade to frame it. Plenty of sidewalk cafés and restaurants line the prom providing a range of tasty cuisines day and night or you can take a leisurely stroll down to the lighthouse to round off your day. You can also easily reach the beautiful Nerja, Torremolinos and Malaga from your Torrox summer holiday base.
