The tourism of the last few years has brought a little prosperity to Competa and therefore also a more modern lifestyle. Young people now prefer motorbikes and cars as a means of transport rather than mules. Although the older andalusians still use mules. You will find a great tolerance of old tradicions and development continuing side by side as a sign of our incessant history.
But - thanks to tourism - there is work in the village, so the young people can stay here. That means, Competa also stays young and lively . It´s always worth experiencing the colourful life of this authentic Spanish village.
