The old agricultural and fishing town of Estepona was one of the
first resorts on this coast to attract tourists, yet it is considered
to have best retained its Spanish character of all the towns west
of Malaga and is situated approx 1 hour from Malaga Airport

more information on accommodation and if you are thinking of visiting why not sort a great value Estepona car hire deal?
Although it has all the trappings of tourism, with plenty of hotels, restaurants, shops and leisure facilities, the town retains its local character and its bustling historic quarter sees its 37,000 inhabitants clamber up and down steep cobbled streets to the many tapas bars and cafes serving traditional Spanish delicacies.
Once a wealthy Roman fishing settlement, later fought over by the Moors and Christians, the town grew up around the church and castle and became a self-sufficient place for all kinds of craftsmen, from cabinet makers to blacksmiths and bakers.
Estepona has also embraced modernity with style, however, as seen in its marina, a place to marvel at expensive boats, eat great fish and see in the early hours at the clubs and bars which come alive after midnight, as much with displays of local Sevillana dancing as anything you'd see in an English nightclub.
