View from Cerro Gordo looking down on La Herradura Village and the "horseshoe" Bay

The Costa Tropical region

La Herradura (translated as the horseshoe) lies on a beautiful curved bay between the headlands of Cerro Gordo to the west and Punta de la Mona to the east, on the Costa Tropical. This relatively unknown stretch of the costline of Andalucia just east of the busier Costa del Sol, is characterised by the rugged hills and deep ravines behind, with small villages sheltering in the valleys or clinging to the hillsides, with the Pena Escrita national park overlooking La Herradura. Above everything tower the Sierra Nevada, the highest peaks in Spain. La Herradura boasts some 320 days of sunshine a year and is one of the few places where one can ski in the morning (on the slopes of the Sierra Nevada, 75minutes drive) and sunbathe on the beach in the afternoon.

The La Herradura area

La Herradura, whilst relatively small, does have a good selection of shops, bars and restaurants including a daily fresh meat, fish and vegetable market, supermarkets, baker, banks, chemists, hairdressers etc. Many of the bars and restaurants are situated either on or close to the beach making this the ideal place to idle your days away relaxing in the sunshine. For the more active there is a wide range of watersports including water skiing, sailing, windsurfing and scuba diving; tennis, hang gliding and horse riding are also available in the village.
Almunecar is just a 10 mins drive away, a thriving spanish town,with its own castle,bird park and Friday market,. The famous slopes of Sierra Nevada are close by and open up until May. The Alpujarres, half an hours drive away for keen walkers . Granada a beautiful moorish town, with the Alhambra Palace which should not be missed is only 1 hours drive. Not forgetting Nerja for its famous caves, 'Balcon de Europe' and night life just 15 mins drive away. and the old quaint Spanish village of Frigiliana, up behind Nerja.

“lovely place” It was really nice to stay in el mirador de la bahia. Can't remember whether the ad mentioned it but there are two bathrooms, which was a bonus for us. The kitchen is well equipped and the flat overall is very spacious. The only disappointment was that the view from the balcony was slightly obscured by a spiteful neighbour who had put up a grid, presumably to protect his own privacy but to the detriment of the view from the balcony. Very central in the "historical" part of La Herradura and a short walk to the beach.

Guestbook for Mirador de la Bahia

Your apartment is situated in what we consider to be the nicest part of the village, the old town. Everything is within walking distance. There is a spacious lounge/diner which leads to a balcony with stunning views of the village and the bay, many a night is spent having a few drinks and admiring the view. Ms. D. H. Thirsk.

Many thanks for the use of your apartment. We enjoyed our stay, having unbroken sunshine for the whole month. C & P, South Wales.

We really appreciated having the kitchen well-stocked with pots/pans/knives. D & S, London.

We had a lovely time staying here - the apartment was absolutely beautiful. J.M. Sheffield.

We liked your apartment very much!, spacious for the three of us and very well equipped! Although we hardly used the roof terrace due to the heat this time of year (July), the views are magnificent. J.R. Amsterdam
