Estepona from €449pp

Costa del Sol, Spain

Estepona is a resort town and one of the most popular destinations on the Costa del Sol for tourists. Today it still manages to retain its old Andalusian charm. It’s cobbled narrow streets, fishing port, Spanish cafes and bars spilling out onto the pavements, and the quaint shops and bodegas, all combine with the modern Puerto Deportivo (leisure port) and marina, the tourist facilities and golden sandy beaches, to make this a comfortable and interesting place to stay for holidaymakers.

The Paseo Maritimo, a palm-lined promenade, runs next to the Playa de la Rada beach. Here you can enjoy activities such a Kayaking and windsurfing. The wonderful El Cristo beach is located to the west of the town and is an excellent beach for families and it is sheltered within a cove.

Whatever your taste, Estepona is not short of restaurants to suit everyone. There are some excellent traditional tapas bars, Spanish restaurants and bodegas, if you want to enjoy typical Spanish and Mediterranean cuisine. Plus there are some excellent fish restaurants, both in the port and in the town.
