From the Costa del Sol World / Areas

Marbella

Marbella pairs a compact old town with a long developed shore and the Sierra Blanca behind it. The centre and the eastern dunes offer contrasting ways to spend time.

Why go

Start around Plaza de los Naranjos for the older street pattern, churches and surviving defensive remains, then follow Avenida del Mar toward the waterfront. The Artola dunes near Cabopino show a less built-up edge of the municipality. Marbella works best when you choose between a central history walk and a separate coastal nature outing rather than treating its long coastline as one compact stop.

What to look for

  • Plaza de los Naranjos anchors the old town’s Castilian-era street plan.
  • Avenida del Mar links the historic centre with the sea.
  • The Artola dunes survive at the municipality’s eastern end.

Useful to know

  • Keep the old town and waterfront together on one walk; plan the Artola dunes as a separate outing.
