The very best
of Estepona
In Al Andalus times, Estepona was known as Medina Istibuna. Today, the revamped old town of Estepona extends over what was once a Nasrid fortified city. Its maze of white streets, adorned with colorful pots brimming with flowers, represents the essence of a coastal Andalusian town. With its privileged location near Gibraltar, Estepona is also one of the best enclaves for family leisure on the Costa del Sol.
