La Herradura is a uniquely unspoiled Spanish resort situated in the heart of the Costa Tropical between Almunecar and Nerja. Herradura means 'horseshoe' named after the beautiful crescent-shaped bay on which it is located. It has a long sand and shingle beach with many nearby sandy coves sheltered by cliffs and inlets. Many activities are available mostly associated with the seaside. They include scuba diving, wind surfing, parasailing, sailing, water skiing, horse riding, golf, hiking and mountain biking.
The village has an excellent range of restaurants and bars, good nightlife, entertainment and fiestas. There are some fascinating trips to nearby towns such as the Nerja caves, Salobrena, historical Granada and the Alhambra, the Sierra Nevadas and Alpujarras Mountains.
