Villa rentals in Estepona - Spain
Locals are often seen chatting outside their houses. In the old part of the town the streets are still cobbled whilst along the seafront runs a very pretty promenade lined with palm trees and flowers. There are some chiringuitos (beach bars) are to be found along this promenade.
The beaches in Estepona were originally of fairly coarse grey sand but work has been done to improve them and they now tend to be a bit better than they used to be. Of course, all the usual beach and water activities are available such as jet-skiing, parasailing, diving and pedalos. If you have your own transport and want to find some quieter beaches with golden sand these can be found anywhere just beyond Tarifa.
Estepona is a perfect resort for families and people looking for a quiet holiday away from the busy nightlife of some of the more commercialised resorts along the coast although there are some disco pubs around the marina. There are many traditional tapas bars around Plaza Las Flores and some excellent restaurants specialising in seafood and fish dishes such as sardines on the spit (espeto de sardinas).
Like all other Andalusian towns, Estepona takes the opportunity to celebrate and party as much as possible. Three of its main festivals are San Isidro celebrated on May 15th with processions and a party in the countryside, the local town festival celebrated during the first week of June in the fairground and also the festival of the Virgen del Carmen on July 16th when a statue of the virgen is carried out to sea and back on fishing boats.
