Estepona: Sunshine, Spanish Markets and Life by the Sea

Destination: Estepona, Spain Travel Diary: Sade Aspire Travel Holiday Type: Personal Holiday / Spanish Coastal Escape

A relaxing taste of the Costa del Sol

Sometimes the best holidays are the ones where you don't try to do too much.

A few days of beautiful weather, good food, wandering through Spanish markets, getting out onto the water and plenty of time simply to relax.

That was exactly the appeal of a recent break in Estepona, Spain.

Located on the Costa del Sol, Estepona offers that lovely combination of traditional Spanish atmosphere, beautiful coastline and an easy-going holiday feel - making it a great choice for anyone looking for sunshine without feeling like they have to fill every minute.

Life by the sea

One of the highlights of the trip was getting out onto the water.

There's something about seeing the coastline from a boat that gives you a completely different perspective. Away from the busy streets and back on the open water, the pace slows down and you get to enjoy the Mediterranean from a completely different angle.

For a relaxing break, adding a boat trip is a simple way to turn a good holiday into something that feels a little more memorable.

Markets, food and Spanish life

A big part of enjoying Estepona is simply taking the time to explore.

Spanish markets, local food and long, relaxed meals all add to the experience.

Rather than rushing from one attraction to the next, this is a destination where you can wander, stop for something to eat, enjoy a drink in the sunshine and simply take in the atmosphere.

And when the food is as good as it was on this trip, there is every reason to take your time.

The perfect little getaway

What stood out most was just how easy the trip felt.

There was time to explore, time to enjoy the coast, time to eat well and, most importantly, time to relax.

Estepona works particularly well for travellers who want a sunshine escape with a little more character, combining the pleasures of a Spanish coastal holiday with the freedom to explore at your own pace.

And sometimes, that's exactly what you need.

Would we go back?

Absolutely.

Beautiful weather, great food, Spanish markets, time on the water and plenty of opportunities to switch off.

The hardest part was coming home.

Already wishing we were back. 🇪🇸☀️
