Torrox belongs to the region of the Axarquía, in the province of Málaga. The mild climate conditions and the warm welcome you will receive, make this place an exceptional holiday destination, so much that the town has won the “prize” of Europe’s best climate. This is thanks to the year-round spring, whose average temperature is 18ºC.
This is possible thanks to the mountains that envelop the village and its closeness to the beaches of the Costa del Sol, in the valley of river Torrox. In fact, only 4 km separate the two areas of Torrox, Torrox Pueblo and Torrox Costa. The landscape you will be able to enjoy is subtropical, as it combines the town’s seven beaches, summing a total of nine km worth of seashore, with the mountain range that prevents the strong winds from reaching Torrox.
As mentioned, the town is divided into two areas, separated by 4 km and well connected between each other. Torrox Pueblo is the Old Town, the oldest part of the village and where you will find the highest quantity of history and monuments.
Torrox Costa, on the other hand, features more touristic areas, beaches and seashores that let you enjoy the famous climate of Torrox. Torrox Costa is also divided into smaller areas, among which El Morche stands out. Here is where the fishermen used to live and, nowadays, it has become a very fascinating tourist attraction.
The word Torrox comes from Arab, and it means “tower”. However, several studies have proved that the first inhabitants of this place in the province of Malaga were the Phoenicians, and the Romans, who develop the commercial and fishing industry (famous is the garum sauce) in the area. Later on, Torrox was occupied by the Arabs, when it became the silk collecting centre, which then used to be sent to Malaga and Granada. Torrox was conquered by the Christians in 1488.
The Lighthouse of Torrox is the main attraction in town. It was built in 1864, and it’s one of the only ones in the province of Malaga that are open to the public. The lighthouse welcomes exhibitions that show the history of Torrox, also thanks to the Roman archaeological site that’s located in the Lighthouse enclosure. Inside the lighthouse, there is the Museo Marino de Torrox (Marine Museum of Torrox).
The coast of Torrox is part of the famous Costa del Sol. Among its most famous beaches, some are awarded yearly the Blue Flag, which is a synonym of cleanliness and purity of its waters and sand. The beaches of Torrox feature the beach of El Morche, in the urban area of Torrox Costa, provided with a promenade and provided with all services, and the 1.200-mt-long beach of Ferrara, which has access adapted for people with reduced mobility. The latter also features a smaller cove in its East part (Playa Chica) and it’s characterised by a familiar ambience.
