\"Excursions\"<\/a>

Excursions that take you inland…<\/p><\/div>\n

The Costa del Sol is predominantly known as a sun and beach destination; however, what many visitors don\u2019t realise is that there are some amazing and beautiful locations to discover by travelling into the interior towns, villages and countryside.<\/p>\n

Well, we\u2019re happy to introduce a new excursion to our \u2013 already ample \u2013 list of great day trips on offer at our Leisure Desk: Introducing the new excursion from our new collaborating company, Parknatur. You\u2019ll be taken on a unique trip which will allow you to discover the \u2018other\u2019 Andalucia; rest assured, it will seduce your senses!<\/p>\n

Parknatur will be offering daily excursions (Monday to Friday) which will take you on a truly memorable adventure into the Biosphere Nature Reserve of the Sierra de las Nieves, approximately40 kminto the mountains. Here\u2019s a brief summary of what you\u2019ll get to see on this great day out:<\/p>\n

The first stop is a visit to an orchard where the owner will explain how new forms of ecological cultivation and production methods are being developed. You\u2019ll get to see how ecological olive oil is produced and \u2013 this is the best part \u2013 you\u2019ll get to taste a selection of delicious olive oils!<\/p>\n

Next stop is the beautiful town of Casarabonela. You\u2019ll get to stroll through the town\u2019s enchanting streets and see beautiful fountains and other distinguishable landmarks which have all been inspired and influenced by the town\u2019s Moorish origins.<\/p>\n

The visit to Casarabonela will conclude with a visit to a traditional olive oil mill where you\u2019ll be able to chat with the actual owner, an elderly gentleman who used to work in the mill as a young man.<\/p>\n

You\u2019ll then be taken to a handicrafts school and workshop where students are taught the intricacies of producing ceramics, ironwork, woodwork and more. After touring the workshops and seeing some of the works on exhibition, it will then be time for lunch; a delicious menu prepared with homegrown ecologic products awaits you \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

\"Cheese<\/a>

The Cheese Factory<\/p><\/div>\n

The last stop on this fascinating and educational tour of the interior will take you to a family-run cheese factory. Here you\u2019ll be able to witness the whole production, from the milking of the goats to the maturing process in cold chambers. You\u2019ll see the more modern and technological cheese production process as well as the traditional handmade version. The best part is that everyone gets to taste the different types of cheeses and you even get one to take home!<\/p>\n

Now, doesn\u2019t that sound like a great way to spend a day? If you\u2019d like more information about the excursion or, indeed, would like to book, please head over to our Leisure desk on the 6th<\/sup> floor of Sunset Beach Club<\/span> <\/a>where Annemie and Susanna will be more than happy to help \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
