Nerja beach & caves

Nerja Beach and Caves, located on the southern coast of Spain, are a stunning natural wonder that combines the beauty of sandy shores with the intrigue of ancient caverns.
The Nerja Caves, also known as the "Cuevas de Nerja," are a series of caverns stretching for almost 5 kilometres (about 3 miles) beneath the Sierra de Almijara mountain range. These caves are famous for their extraordinary formations of stalactites and stalagmites, formed over millions of years. Visitors to the caves can explore the vast chambers, marveling at the intricate shapes and sizes of the mineral deposits illuminated by soft lighting.
One of the most impressive features of the Nerja Caves is the massive chamber known as the Sala de la Gran Columna, or Hall of the Great Column, which contains a towering stalagmite measuring over 32 meters (105 feet) in height.
A visit to the Nerja Caves allows pupils to explore geological formations and ancient human history, enhancing their understanding of Earth's development and early human life. The nearby beaches offer opportunities to study coastal ecosystems and the importance of environmental conservation.
