COSTA
OCCIDENTAL - CASARES INFORMATION
Near Estepona, 8km. along the coast, there's
a minor way leading into the hills to Casares, one of the classic
andaluz white city. In keeping with the genre, it clings tenaciously
to a steep, hillside below a castle, and has attracted its fais share
of arty types and expatriates. But it remains comparetively little
known.
Futher west, 3Km. inland from the town of Manilva. are some remarkably
well-preserved roman sulphur baths. If you want to partake of these
healthgiving waters you'll have to be prepared to dive into a subterranean
carven, and to put up with the overpowering stench of sulphur, which
clings to your swimwear for weeks.
