About Estepona

Estepona has not been dubbed the Garden of the Costa del Sol without good reason. From the palm trees lining the promenade to the many flower pots hanging from the whitewashed houses in the old town, this town takes its aesthetics seriously. The beauty is not just contained to greenery, though – among the winding streets, you’re never far from murals and sculptures. Historic buildings and museums are dotted throughout...
