A short drive from Ronda (less than 20 kilometers away), Setenil de las Bodegas is a worthy detour. This surprising Pueblo Blanco grew out of a collection of cliff-enclosed cave dwellings hewn from rock. Entire blocks of whitewashed buildings are submerged under massive, naturally occurring rocky overhangs.

On the balmy "Costa Tropical," Salobreña is tucked into a hillside that overlooks the Mediterranean Sea. The small historic town of Salobreña is a tightly packed collection of whitewashed buildings, presided over by an ancient Moorish castle on the hilltop.

Perched high above the Río Barbates and only 10 kilometers from the sea, the hilltop village of Vejer de la Frontera is one of the prettiest of the Pueblos Blancos.

In the old town (La Ciudad), the narrow, labyrinthine streets and whitewashed buildings reveal a rich Moorish inheritance. The ancient Arab Baths in the Barrio de San Miguel are further proof of the Islamic influence. Another interesting historical narrative is the story of the town's bandits, illustrated at the Museo del Bandolero (Bandit Museum).

Perilously clinging to a sheer cliff, Ronda stands at a dizzying height and offers thrilling views of the dramatic landscape. About 85 kilometers from Arcos de la Frontera, the town straddles the El Tajo Gorge, with the emblematic Puente Nuevo (New Bridge) crossing the jaw-dropping 150-meter-deep ravine.
