Situated in the province of Malaga, near Cadiz, Estepona is an impressive tourist paradise featuring plenty of sandy beaches, a marina and magnificent historic buildings. The city used to be a major commercial port during Phoenician times.
La Rada is one of the most important beaches, characterized by a long, palm-lined promenade. Other beaches include La Galera, Bahia Dorada, El Saladillo, and the nudist beach, Costa Natura.
Some of Estepona's main attractions are the church of Nuestra Senora de los Remedios, dating from the 18th century; the castle of San Luis, featuring several watchtowers along the coast; and the Roman baths, found near the Tower of the river Guadalmansa.
Sport-lovers will find plenty of opportunities to practise all kinds of water sports, such as sailing, scuba diving or sea fishing in Estepona's marina.
Estepona holds two major festivals: Holy Week, in which Easter floats are carried in procession; and the Festival of the Virgen del Carmen, featuring a maritime procession.
Estepona's specialties include salted fish, octopus salad and sardines on the spit, the 'teja' sweet, the 'gazpachuelo' (a soup with bread, mayonnaise and potatoes), and the 'ajoblanco' (a soup with almonds, oil and grapes).
