As you walk around the old town its good to see all generations, enjoying the Mediterranean lifestyle.
A suggested walk around the old
town
Park the car in the underground car park under the
seafront promenade and walk through to the pedestrianised Calle
Real. Where this road crosses Calle Terraza is a good starting point.
The Café Central on the corner is one of
the town's most popular cafés. It is commonly known locally
as the Manicomio or 'mad house' presumably referring to a building
that once stood on this site. Take a look at the old photos of Estepona
on display here. If there has been a recent town event or procession,
photos of this will probably also be on display.
If time permits, have a look at the shops on Calle
Terraza and Real, and stop in at one of the traditional bars on
Calle Caridad for an ice-cold fino (sherry) and tapa.
Walk up to the attractive Plaza de las Flores. On
one side is the Casa de la Cultura, a cultural centre maintained
by the town hall. Have a look inside, as there may well be an art
exhibition being held by a local artist.
Walk west to view the Clock Tower, the municipal market, the old
town hall and the Castle of San Luis before heading down the hill
to the seafront promenade.
