If you’re up for a good walk and some great views on a clear day of Africa and gibraltar. Try climbing sierra bermeja , the big mountain that is just. 20mins away by car. There are many routes you can take to get to this restaurant and the food is completely organic and locally produced . I love the massive fireplace they have in the center of the country style restaurant. The waiters have always been súper friendly and the food feels great after a good hike!! Well worth it if you like walking.

I loved this restaurant! Well worth the trip. I recommend the ensaladilla rusa with fried egg and truffle. You will need to reserve in advance…. Make sure to ask for the table beside the rocks… they have water running down them and it’s a lovely way to keep cool in the hot summer weather. Natural AC.🤪

Great for carnivores! Fantastic meat , great views, and a friendly owner who will give you good recommendations. I recommend this restaurant if you want to do the walk between Benojan and jimera . Take the train from one or the other and it’s about a9km walk

A Gastronomic experience for the carnivore in you. Argentinian grill in a polo field . A real romantic experience on a hot summer night… make sure to call and reserve first. Because they only open in summer and when they do they normally are fully booked.

This seaside restaurant is 10mins in car but it’s only open in summer. Reserve in advance to book a table on the evenings and enjoy the sunset over the bay. I would recommend the Galician octopus “pulpo la Gallega”

Neighbourhoods
This is a really posh neighborhood… you can enjoy a nice meal by the quiet port. On Sundays they have a really nice market near the port too, where you can buy a real Panama hat or a cool oversized personalized beach bag.
It’s also a good place to go inline skating. I have a pair of size 40 in the cupboard beside the front door if you want to try.

This is the second closest place to the house to have a drink or a meal. It’s within walking distance (about 15mins) there are a wide selection of international restaurants and bars, very popular with locals and British residents.

If you want to go shopping or go to the cinema in English or have a night or day out with good food this is a good option. The port is crowded with the rich and famous and it’s worth going just to see the expensive yachts and Ferraris😉

Estepona has changed a lot in the last few years! The mayor has drastically improved the sea front. Now you can walk the whole area without a single car! It’s all pedestrian and this is I think the only town on the costa del sol that has that. There are loads of nice restaurants and they are maintaining their coastal fishing vibe and respecto ing the old facades of the buildings yet modernizing at the same time … I studied town planning and I can say it’s a case worth studying.

Sightseeing
Wat to see in the local area and why.
Tarifa is the wind surfing and kite surfing capital of Europe. If you don’t mind driving and you check the weather before you leave home (whether you want a windy day or a beach day) this could be a Fantastic day out for you.
I recommend getting up early (about 9) to beat the traffic.
Try playa Valdevaqueros, or even Bolonia.
The night life in Tarifa is also famous. So if you want a hippy night out it’s well worth it. The town center is filled with tapas bars and small bohemian boutiques where you can buy really nice clothes and accessories.

I was surprised when I visited this historic local tourist attraction. I had been told that it stunk of rotten eggs. It’s very close by and even after living here for 23 years I had never visited it because of that.
However when I finally went I found the bright green colour of the flora in the water combined with the natural white of the natural minerals in the water that comes directly from the underground springs amazing.
It is also worth a walk up the canyon before you take a dip and enjoy the amazing rock formations.
Take a packed lunch and you can eat your sandwiches on the picnic tables provided.
