With an overall population of 37,000, the 'old town',
as it is known, is a bustling and atmospheric centre.
Estepona is one of the few coastal towns that has
succeeded in maintaining its pueblo charm and character, despite
the onslaught of tourism. Notwithstanding, all the tourist facilities
are here, including hotels, restaurants, leisure and cultural
activities, and shops.
The flip side is that the numerous street cafes
and tapas bars still serve traditional Spanish delicacies and
the steep, cobbled, narrow streets seem more suited to horses
than cars. You'll also find unusual shops and bodegas in Estepona,
where you'd least expect them, all very inviting, very friendly
- and very cheap!
Located at the west end of
the Paseo Maritimo and is a delightful place to wander
round, look at the boats, sit in one of the bars, have a meal
and dance the night away. More
