Locality
Once a fisherman's village, and the home of sugar cane factory workers introduced by the Moors in the 8th C AD. The fishermen still gather on the paseo first thing in the morning, and provide fresh fish to local restaurants. The paseo maritimo is a local hub for locals and visitors, dog walkers and joggers. There you will find some nice spots to grab a morning coffee, there are plenty of bars and restaurants, sun loungers and grilled fish cooked on open flame on old fishing boat dotting the beach (Espeto).

Natural area (Málaga)
The Sierra Bermeja mountain range not only provides an impressive backdrop to Estepona, it also contributes to Estepona’s microclimate and 325 days of sunshine a year. Its highest point of Los Reales, at 1450, is only 10 km from the coast, making Estepona one of the few cities in the world that can boast being so close to the sea and the mountains.
