Estepona has a wonderful, quiet cove Playa de Cristo, a long, sandy beach called La Rada and a small nudist beach. The beaches are very clean and well cared for and all have bars on them. In total there is 23km of sand. The harbour, built in 1977 is located a short walk from the centre.

It is possible to rent a boat with or without a skipper. There are also many bars and restaurants to cater for all tastes. The town is of attractive construction, combining modern with old, and has many places to see including the Plaza de Las Flores and the Torre de Reloj (clock tower). There is a wonderful Wednesday market, which sells local produce.

On the outskirts of the town is the local bullring. The bullring offers bullfights on a regular basis, as well as doubling up for concerts. It is just off the main N340 highway, heading towards Cadiz.
