Competa is one of the most attractive white washed villages in Andalucia. Set approx 600m above sea level in the foothills of the Sierra Almijara, the village remains intrinsically Spanish and has several excellent restaurants and shops. The region offers beautiful scenery with mountains, an adjacent national park, clear seas, lovely beaches and many places of interest. Nerja is about 16km away, with beaches and pre-historic caves. Granada, Seville, Gibraltar and the busier resorts of the Costa Del Sol are all readily accessible. There is also an excellent water park in Torre del Mar.
Sports/leisure activities, including walking, climbing, horse-riding, golf and tennis are all available nearby. Skiing is also possible in the Sierra Nevada in winter (about 2 hours). The area is ideal for walking in Autumn, Winter and Spring.
