Frigiliana itself is in the mountains, but the beaches of Nerja are only a ten-minute drive away. Playa Burriana, Playa El Salón and Playa de Maro are at your feet - literally and figuratively.
Visit the archaeological museum at Casa del Apero, discover El Ingenio (Europe's only cane sugar factory), stroll through the market or take a ride on the tourist train through the village.

Fly into Málaga. From there it is about 1 hour's drive. Are you coming from Nerja (7 km)? Then you can get there in 15 minutes by car or by local bus (approx. €1).
On foot is the only real way. Strolling through the Barribarto you will discover hidden squares, mosaic stories, ceramic signs and viewpoints behind every corner. Less mobile? Take the tourist train.
