Puerto Banus

The world-famous Puerto Banus is set around a breath-taking Marina where the rich, famous and beautiful come to moor their yachts, park their cars and be seen!

Although built in the 70’s, the port retains true Andalucian character with its narrow streets and white-washed buildings. Don’t miss the famous Rastro market on Saturdays. Visit the port to see and be seen, and don’t forget your spending money.

Marbella... is a fifteen minute drive and Orange Square is a wonderful place full of culture and charm. The old quarter of Marbella where Orange Square is situated is surrounded by narrow streets offering plenty of pretty restaurants to eat and drink.

Seville…
Capital of the province, Seville is often acclaimed as Spain’s most beautiful city. Steeped in culture and history it is a delight to the senses and paints an unforgettable picture of the real Spain.

Enjoy breathtaking views as you approach this white-washed town perched on a cliff top in Spain’s most glorious landscape. Home to Spain’s oldest bull-ring and maintaining to this day the essence of rural Spain.

Estepona…
This fishing-village remains one of the most unspoilt on the coast and the heritage of centuries runs through its streets. Boasting 30km of sandy beaches, life here goes at a slower pace. You’ll find the people warm and friendly and they uphold their traditions with pride.

Granada…
Dominated by the stunning Alhambra Palace, this is arguably the most exciting city in the region. The Alhambra was once home to Arabic Sultans and is considered by some to be one of the 10 wonders of the world. It is Spain’s most visited monument. Wander through the cobbled streets of the old Aarabic quarter and stop in one of the many squares for a bite to eat. The city is quite stunning by day, and comes alive at night to the sound of Flamenco and Jazz. From here it is a short step into the Sierra Nevada - making it possible to sunbathe on the beach and ski in the mountains on the same day!

Gibraltar…
While having much in common with its neighbour, southern Spain, Gibraltar has a culture and character all its own. It is a meeting place of continents, measuring less than 6 sq km in total. Inhabited by a unique mix of nationalities - British, Moroccans, Indians and Spanish. The famous and imposing rock is well worth a visit - not least for the tax-free shopping and colony of famous apes!

Malaga…
This is the capital city of the Malaga Province and one that is often overlooked by the millions of tourists who land at the international airport 6km to the west. It is, in fact, a charming city with its leafy Alameda. This is the birthplace of Picasso and the new Picasso museum houses many of his works. Visit the Paseo for some of the best fish and seafood cafes in the province.

Morocco…
Tangier… Marrakech… Casablanca… Though just an hour by ferry, and visible from the coast of Spain, these cities date back to 500 B.C. and present a culture and way of life that is as unfamiliar as it is exotic

Beaches - The south boundary of the San Pedro de Alacantara is marked by the coast consisting of a string of beaches starting with that of Puerto Banus and continuing in a westerly direction to those of Nueva Andalucia, and on to Guadalmina. All the beaches are sandy and kept very clean. The beach at San Pedro is nearly 5km long. In Puerto Banus the beach is at the north of the town and is called Playa Levante. It is long and wide and very clean. The two main beaches in Marbella are El Fuerte and El Fontanilla, both having all the facilities you would expect from a modern resort. Queen Isabella once said 'Que mar tan bella' - 'what a beautiful sea' and the saying stuck
