Playa Carabeo

Carabeo beach is one of the few beaches in Nerja that has its own viewpoint. Crossing Carabeo street we find a small white balcony from which we can see the spectacular views of Carabeo beach.

Access to the beach is only pedestrianized. A row of stairs leads us towards it. The beach has a small promenade where you can take a few minutes to appreciate the sea.

This dark sand beach is of a moderate length. It is 120 meters long. Surrounded by huge rocks and wild nature. These types of landscapes are the favorites of tourists because they provide privacy and peace. This beach becomes a really reserved place.

It is located between the beaches of Calahonda and El Chorrillo . Its location is ideal for those looking to spend the day on a beach that is not too central.

The views from this beach are extraordinary. On one side you can contemplate the Balcón de Europa and on the other the characteristic set of cliffs of Burriana .

Carabeo beach is less crowded than the rest of the beaches in Nerja. Perhaps it is because the only access it has is by stairs. However, it is a beach that is worth visiting.

It has all the essential services (surveillance by lifeguards, kiosk, bathrooms, showers ...).

It should be noted that the Balcón de Europa is only a 5-minute walk from Carabeo beach. The Bus Station is only a 15-minute walk away. It is indisputable that its location is excellent. In this way, all the services present in the center of Nerja (diverse gastronomic and commercial offer) are at your fingertips. Specifically in Calle de Carabeo you can find restaurants, bars, souvenirs and supermarkets. Despite being one of the most popular streets in Nerja, it houses several really cheap bars. In addition, it has a pedestrian access to the Carabeo Parking. What will facilitate your arrival at the beach.

If you are adventurous, you will not resist visiting the set of coves that are located a few steps from Carabeo beach. This set of coves has a unique charm. It is called El Chorrillo and is accessed through the famous Paseo de Los Carabineros . Currently the access is closed, but soon it will be properly enabled for it.
