Estepona beaches

The Estepona coastline stretches for more than 21 km, with shallow, sandy beaches that suit all kinds of visitors. Along the Costa del Sol, each area has its own character, from lively, fully serviced beaches near the town centre to quieter, more natural beaches further along the coast.
Playa de la Rada (Rada Beach), right in front of Estepona town, is the largest and most popular beach in Estepona. It offers excellent facilities, including restaurants, showers and lifeguards. Awarded the Blue Flag, it’s ideal for families and anyone looking for comfort and convenience.
Playa del Cristo (El Cristo Beach) is a charming sheltered cove, protected from the wind, making it a great choice all year round. Its calm waters and protected setting make it especially popular with families with children.
La Galera Beach and Bahía Dorada stand out for their rocky areas and small cliffs, creating beautiful coastal scenery and a more natural, peaceful atmosphere.
Costa Natura Beach, the first official nudist beach on the Costa del Sol, is well known among naturists from across Europe and offers a relaxed, alternative beach experience in Estepona.
