The two main stands are 1) Parallel to the Bus Station on Nerja’s main road and 2) In Calle San Miguel on the Plaza de la Ermita. At all times of the day, you can find Taxis here. Later in the evening Taxis will line up in a small rank next to Plaza Tutti Frutti where there is plenty of nightlife. Official rates should be displayed at airports and inside any licensed taxi. There are taxi ranks in most city centres and it is also possible to hail a taxi in the street. A green ‘libre’ (free) notice on the windscreen or green light on the car roof at night indicates a taxi that is available for hire.
