Estepona stands out as one of the main international tourist destinations on the Costa del Sol. Its urban center is one of the most beautiful and well-kept in the Andalusia region, full of pots and flowers responsible for the nickname of this city: The Garden of the Costa del Sol. The orchid garden, located in the center of the city, has more than 1,300 species of orchids and is the star of this garden.
The geographical location of Estepona allows it to display a rich and exuberant landscape, since the dynamics of the currents of the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea favor the biological diversity and abundance in the area.
El Jardín de la Costa del Sol, as it is called in Spanish, has it all: beautiful blue flag beaches, a recently renovated promenade, a large marina, plenty of bars and restaurants and other leisure areas.
Its status as a tourist center has fostered the development of the city and it continues to grow, a fact that has not gone unnoticed by the real estate market. Rental income has risen in recent years, favoring investment. In addition, there are many foreigners who choose Estepona as their second home. The distance to Malaga airport (77 kilometers) and Gibraltar airport (47 kilometers) is also a key point. Other highly touristic cities such as Marbella are less than 30 minutes away by car.
