Nerja in March
Around 15.5 °C by day, sea 15.4 °C. Too cold to swim. Quieter than the peak: 2 out of 5 against 5.
March in Nerja is 15.5 °C by day and 15.4 °C in the sea. Load is 2 out of 5: the season is still ahead.
March is a good month to weigh the sunlight. The year holds 3,000 hours here, more than anywhere else on the Costa del Sol: Marbella has 2,960, Málaga 2,900, Torremolinos 2,920. There are 40 rainy days. The mountains behind the town shelter it from the north, and spring starts earlier here than twenty kilometres inland. For anyone moving for the light, that is the line that matters.

The winter column is a 1-to-5 score: how many cafés, hotels and shops run in January compared with the best month of the year. Where a village has no government figure of its own, it is our estimate. Tourists never notice; anyone who moved does.
Rain days and humidity are annual here, not monthly: 40 rainy days a year, 69% humidity in winter. We have no monthly normals yet and will not invent a split.
