Above all Calle Carabeo restaurants cater both for the fine diner and also for those who wish to eat with less expense in mind.

Calle Carabeo is one of the most prestigious streets in Nerja. Hugging the coastline it consequently offers wonderful sea views from several deiiferent vantage points. Calle Carabeo is totally pedestrianised, and offers a tranquil environment for a short stroll to the Balcón de Europa. Moreover it links to the old quarter of this gorgeous town. The full name of this street is Calle Hernando de Carabeo.

Consequently it is used by many as a thoroughfare between the most popular beach in Nerja, Burriana beach, and the focal point of the town, the Balcon de Europa or the Balcony of Europe.

Calle Carabeo provides a straight link from the Balcon de Europa to the old town of Nerja. Above all and most importantly, unlike some areas in Nerja this street is totally flat with no slopes to negotiate.  As a result this makes an easy level stroll along Calle Carabeo to the Balcon de Europa, with its many cafes and restaurants and the magnificent El Salvador church.  Furthermore Calle Carabeo is also one of the the main links to the shops and the old town of Nerja and its many restaurants and beaches.

Nearest Beaches:

Calle Carabeo follows the coastline going east from the Balcon de Europa towards Playa Burriana (Burriana Beach).

If you walk east along Calle Carabeo, there are 3 main beaches on your right hand side.  These are Carabeo beach, Carabeillo beach and and Burriana beach.  In addition Playa Burriana is at the eastern end of the journey.

Most importantly if you want to access Burriana beach you can use the steps at the eastern end of the Carabeo onto Carabeillo beach and walk directly on to Burriana Beach. Therefore, if walking from Burriana to town, this eliminates a walk up a steep slope to access the center of town.
