Is Marbella worth visiting? The answer is yes. There are many reasons to love Marbella. Its historic centre is full of charm and picturesque spots.
It has one of the best restaurants in the Costa del Sol. And let’s not forget about the beaches! Whether you want a winter sun holiday or a fun summer holiday with friends or family, Marbella is fantastic.
Wondering what are the other reasons to make this coastal town your next holiday? I’m telling you all of them here.
If there’s one place you shouldn’t miss in Marbella, it is the old town. After Estepona’s old town, it’s one of the prettiest. Its cobblestone streets, surrounded by narrow white-painted buildings, make you feel like you’re in a maze.
Puerto Banús is Marbella’s exclusive port. Expect out-of-this-world yachts, luxury shops and international restaurants overlooking the sea.
You’ll find typical foods like espetos (sardine skewers), ensalada malagueña (Malaga-style salad) and ajoblanco (cold almond and garlic soup).
Ronda is a fantastic day trip from Marbella. See the impressive New Bridge, wander the historic centre, taste traditional dishes and end your visit in a winery.
Playa de la Venus is the perfect beach for those who stay in the historic centre. It’s just a short walk and has all the facilities you can expect from a beach in such a location.
