Nerja in May
Around 20 °C by day, sea 18.4 °C. Too cold to swim. Quieter than the peak: 3 out of 5 against 5.
May in Nerja is 20 °C by day and 18.4 °C in the sea. Few people swim yet: the water will be 20.2 °C in June and 22.9 °C in July. Load is 3 out of 5.
Spend May on the cave. Five teenagers found it in 1959, and inside were halls tens of metres high and paintings from the Palaeolithic. It is now the main sight of this end of the coast and the workplace of a good part of the town. The conclusion for anyone moving: Nerja lives on tourism all year, but unevenly — load is 5 out of 5 in August and 1 in January.
