A coach rolls away from the Costa del Sol while the coastline thins and the road lifts toward the serranía. By midmorning travelers step into Setenil de las Bodegas where whitewashed facades meet overhanging rock; the cliff seems to press the street into itself and sunlight threads through narrow alleys. The town’s cave-houses sit cool and quiet, a built-in shelter where cafés and tapas bars lean against stone.
