Cómpeta is fascinating to explore with its labyrinth of narrow cobbled streets that date back to Moorish times. Its' main centre, the Plaza Almijara, is dominated by a magnificent sixteenth century church. This bustling square is one of the best places to enjoy a break with a choice of several bars and restaurants. Cómpeta is best known to many for its locally produced wine. The area surrounding the town is spectacular and there are many varied walks through the National Park (five minutes by car).
There is a golf course, shopping centre and cinema complex within thirty minutes. The magnificent Alhambra Palace in Granada is only an hour and a half from Competa by motorway, or two hours, through beautiful white washed villages. Nerja, only twenty minutes drive, has a beautiful beach with open air restaurants all along the sea front.
There are guided walking tours, riding stables, spectacular views, and beautiful drives all around the area. The area is a true rest cure!
