This bright city on the Costa del Sol was founded by the ancient Greeks in 325 B.C, who called it Akra Leuka ('White Summer') for its impressive headlands. The Moors ruled here for over five centuries, and reminders of their passing can be discovered in the winding alleyways of the Old Quarter. The views from the 1,000 foot Balcon del Mediterraneo are superb.
