Why choose Torrox?

Posted on 07/06/2012 by calaceite

For all who don´t know where Torrox is at, Torrox is THE village with the best climate of Europe. Located in Andalusia, province of Málaga and divided in two parts: Torrox Pueblo (in the mountains) and Torrox Costa ( by the sea).

Torrox, the ideal place for nature lovers and beach holidays. The Axarquía, also know as the “unspoilt” Costa del Sol, there are less tourists and still “undiscovered” places to visit.Enough hiking itineraries to go hiking every day! Enough biking itineraries to go biking every day! Enough beaches to try a different beach every day!
