On the western side of the Costa del Sol, Estepona is one of the most popular destinations for both tourists and foreign residents, yet even today it still manages to retain its old Andalusian charm. Located at the western end of the Costa del Sol at the foot of the Sierra Bermeja mountains, this city is a true hidden gem of the region. Estepona’s cobbled narrow streets, fishing port, and Spanish cafes, and the quaint shops and bodegas, all combine with the modern Puerto Deportivo (leisure port) and marina, the tourist facilities and golden sandy beaches, to make this a comfortable and interesting place to stay for holidaymakers.
