Visit Estepona
If you have never visited Estepona, you may not have considered spending a day there. However, if you staying in the area and fancy a little shopping and lunch but can’t quite gear yourself up to travelling to La Cañada, Marbella, Estepona has a lot on offer. There are lots of lovely cafes in plazas, clothes shops and lots of lovely shoe shops. If you set out in the morning you could start off with churros and coffee on the main street or rather ‘Calle Real’ which runs parallel to the promenade. Here are some of the shops that you will find along the Calle Real:
Via Vai (situated opposite the underground car park, beach side)
A small, shiny shop with lots of bling watches, beautiful costume jewellery and Guess handbags.
Soberbia (situated opposite the underground car park, beach side)
Cute, quirky costume jewellery. Lots of butterfly necklace. Great for gifts but you will want to buy everything for yourself!
