About Torrenueva
Torrenueva Costa is a newly-created (2018) Spanish Municipality in the province of Granada and in the autonomous community Andalucía. It is located in the central part of the region of the Granada coast, and was formerly part of the municipality of Motril, from which it was constitutionally separated on 2 October 2018. Beside this locality are found the centres of El Varadero, La Chucha and Carchuna. It fills the occidental part of the cape Sacratif.
The name of Torrenueva is taken from a century XVII defensive watchtower situated in the locality, in the south edge of the highway N-340 between Málaga and Almería, which runs through the locality.
As an eminently touristic location, its beaches are populated by numerous swimmers from many sources-mainly from the rest of the granadine province, Jaén and Ciudad Real- during the summer months. In low season, local population is very low.
