Your Guide to Estepona

Welcome to Estepona! Estepona is a large but not so densely populated municipality between Marbella and Manilva and the municipality has over two miles of coastline with fantastic beaches. North of the coastal road lies a beautiful and fertile valley with as many as six golf courses and several luxury hotels.

Estepona town itself has a nice promenade, cosy marina with several bars and restaurants. In addition, there is a market every Sunday. Here you are met by a pleasant and relaxed feeling that you get in an old fishing village that at the same time has many modern elements without having been exploited. The old part of town dates back to the 16th century. Estepona is also home to the Parque Selwo Aventura adventure park and right now the municipality is also building a large botanical garden/park in the middle of town.

Estepona Guide

Estepona is a popular tourist resort but at a much slower pace than, for example, Marbella and Fuengirola. The 70,000 inhabitants live either inside the city or in one of the many fine gated areas outside, many on the border with the municipality of Marbella. One of them is Atalaya, a golf course with surrounding residences, which is very popular among Scandinavians. Here is the Diana centre with schools, grocery stores, and a Saturday market.

El Paraiso and Bel Air are also popular residential areas among Scandinavians, with a mix of large villas and finer townhouses, local services and activities all year round. The El Paraíso golf course was already built in 1973 and is one of the oldest on the coast. Bel Air also has a long-standing tennis club.
