There are Roman ruins all along the coast and the ruins of the Roman Village at the Torrox Lighthouse are protected as a Property of Cultural Interest.

This is the perfect setting to relax and take in the stunning scenery that the Axarquia region of southern Spain has to offer. As well as enjoying the mountains you will be spoilt by the fine sandy beaches of Torrox Costa which boasts a long promenade and many exquisite restaurants. Historically, Torrox reached the height of its prosperity during the Moorish period due to its pivotal role in the silk trade between Granada and Near Eastern cities such as Baghdad and Damascus. The centre is very pretty with brilliant white-walled houses clinging to the steep slope on which the town is built. There are many winding streets and squares where you can sit and laze the day away drinking locally made wines and dining on local specialities such as migas cortijeras.Still untouched by tourist development you really can appreciate the Spanish way of life and have mountain and sea views not matched anywhere else in this region of Andalucia. Torrox is steeped in history with roman ruins and thermal baths dating back to the 16th century as well as many historical buildings and monuments such as the Convent and Hermitage of the Virgen de las Nieves (XVI century), the towers of its old walled enclosure which according to some historians may have been the birthplace of Almanzor, the Church of San Roque (XVI c.), the Hospital of San Jose (XVIII c.), as well as the old Mint or the Sugar Factory (XIX c.). The other visit you must make is to see the House of the Moorish Kings, which dates from the 18th century and has the most wonderful gardens. From the gardens you can gain access to the underground mines built by Abomelik in the 14th century. Originally it used to have 365 steps but now you will probably be pleased to know that you only have to negotiate 200. Inside are several rooms used as dungeons and storerooms. You will never be short of things to do in Torrox. The town has many festivals and feasts throughout the year such as la Candelaria (September 7- 8), the night of San Juan (June the 24), the Cruces de Mayo (May 2-3) and the famous feasts of Las Migas (last Sunday before Christmas). .If you want a slightly more active time you have plenty of activities to choose like hiking in the local countryside, horseriding in the Sierras or touring the local villages to sample their wines and cuisine. Back on the coast, Torrox Costa is a popular coastal strip, particularly with holidaymakers who flock there during the summer, with a choice of hotels and accommodation available. Torrox Costa is also the site of the remains of a Roman necropolis and villa located immediately west of the lighthouse. There are the usual array of water activities, plenty of shops and restaurants to explore or you can simply stretch out on the sandy beach and have a well deserved siesta in the year round warm climate this area has become famous for (averaging 30 degrees in the summer months). |
