Nerja
Travel Guide Europe Spain Andalusia Nerja
Introduction
Nerja sits on the coast east of Malaga in Spain. In recent years it has developed significantly to meet the demands of tourism in this once forgotten part of Andalusia. It benefits from six or seven smallish beaches separated by rocky coves. One of the prime tourist attractions is the Balcon de Europa which provides a popular viewpoint and gathering area in the centre of town. In October, if you are lucky, you may see (and hear) the flocks of colourful parrots that fly over from Africa for a brief stop and reside in the palm trees that line the Balcon. Also, pay a visit to the nearby white village of Frigiliana.

Post
If you want to post a card, you can head to the post office (Correos). The Spanish post is not yet as efficient as colleagues in other countries so receiving a card can take a bit longer than the number of days that it should take. On the website of Correos, you can find the locations of nearby post offices.
Post offices are generally open from 8:30am to 2:00pm, although times can vary and the main post office usually is open until the early evening. Most will also open again on Saturday mornings, but in the smaller towns will close as early as 12 noon. When posting a letter, look for a yellow box and, if possible, post at the post office itself where there will also be divisions for local, national and international mail. Be prepared for long queues at the post office. This is why tobacco shops sell stamps and many will also have the facility to weigh packages.
Standard letters/postcards of up to 20 grams sent within Spain are €0.34. However, non-standard letters/postcards of up to 20g are €0.39. Letters/postcards of 20 to 50 grams are €0.45. In the case of international shipping, the price is €0.64 to most countries within Europe for standard envelopes (letters/postcards) up to 20g, for a few European countries and outside Europe it is €0.78.
