The area

Between the Sierra Bermeja and the sea

Estepona has a long seafront promenade, an old town of white streets full of flowerpots and a lively harbour. Marbella and Gibraltar are easy day trips.

Our tips

What we like to do ourselves

Estepona old town

Wander through the white streets with flowerpots on the walls and look out for the big murals. End up on a square with tapas.

Our favourite: Makako

Asian fusion cooking and good cocktails on the upper floor of Hotel El Pilar, on the Plaza de las Flores in the old town. Open in the evenings; book ahead in summer.

A day in Gibraltar or Marbella

Marbella is 25 minutes away, the Rock of Gibraltar 50. With children, Selwo Aventura is a real winner: wild animals up close.
