Nerja to reopen the area below Balcón de Europa to the public

Posted on: February 5th, 2026

Nerja town hall on the eastern Costa del Sol has approved plans to reopen the viewpoint below its iconic Balcón de Europa, known locally as ‘La Reola’, to the public. The town hall has approved a draft project, valued at 291,000 euros, designed by the municipal architect, Beatriz Pérez. Mayor of Nerja José Alberto Armijo said that this would be “one of the most important projects carried out in recent years at the Balcón de Europa,” as it will allow “the recovery of public use of the lower La Reola viewpoint and return it to its original configuration.”
