Nice for a stroll and views of the coast. Place where everyone congregates, especially in the evenings. Some really good buskers! Nice bars and cafes close by and the obligatory Spanish church!

A great place to hang out by the coast with numerous restaurants and cafes. Palm trees line the route and you can see green parrots flying around
