Why Swedes love Torrox

- ✓The price: Significantly cheaper than Nerja (just 10 minutes away) and the western coast.
- ✓The calm: The pace here is slower. Many buy here and go to Nerja for dinners.
- ✓The promenade: Torrox Costa has a long, flat seafront promenade perfect for morning walks.
🤔Who is it NOT suitable for?
- •Those who want nightlife and parties (it's quiet here).
- •Those seeking a large Swedish community (Germans and Brits dominate here).
- •Those who want luxury shopping (you'll need to go to Málaga or Marbella).
