Thanks to the vision of the mayor and the continued growth of the town, Estepona is one of the most promising places on the Costa del Sol, where the balance between tradition, luxury and modern infrastructure offers the ideal environment for both finding your dream home and making a smart investment.
New developments in Estepona
The Paseo MartÃmo
Recently, the municipality of Estepona has extended the Paseo MarÃtimo , a beautiful coastal path that is part of the Senda Litoral de Málaga . This path runs right along the sea and offers a wonderful route for walkers and cyclists with breathtaking views . Thanks to this extension, you can now walk from Estepona to other coastal towns, all the way to Málaga. This project not only strengthens the connection with surrounding towns, but also makes it even more attractive to enjoy the beauty of Estepona's coastline .
The renovated port of Estepona
Estepona’s marina is undergoing a dramatic transformation with modern moorings , green areas and a stylish promenade lined with restaurants and boutiques. Sustainability is key, with the use of solar power and smart water management. This upgrade will not only make the marina a magnet for yachtsmen and visitors, but will also increase the property values in the area. Luxury apartments and penthouses are benefiting from this development, making Estepona an increasingly popular residential and investment destination.

The new center
Estepona will have a green and modern city centre with the Bulevar Parque Central , an ambitious project that combines beautiful parks, wide walkways and relaxation areas, giving the heart of the city a fresh and vibrant look . In addition to more greenery and recreation, it will also offer improved infrastructure, new cultural facilities and an underground car park with more than 300 spaces for just €1 per day. With an investment of €17.3 million and scheduled for completion in April 2026, the Bulevar Parque Central will strengthen Estepona’s appeal as a vibrant and sustainable city on the Costa del Sol.
The authentic Estepona
Estepona embodies everything that appeals to people about Andalusia: sunny days, white houses with wrought iron balconies, narrow streets and an abundance of colourful flowers. It is a city where tradition and atmosphere are palpable on every street corner – and where daily life still exudes the charm of the real Spain.
The nickname El Jardín de la Costa del Sol – or 'the garden of the Costa del Sol' – is not a coincidence. With over 300,000 flower boxes spread throughout the centre, the historic heart of Estepona is a living work of art of colour and scent. The care and attention to these details tell a lot about the character of the city: warm, welcoming and with an eye for tradition.
At a time when many coastal towns have been sucked into mass tourism, Estepona has charted its own course. No tall buildings, no crowded boulevards. Instead, you will find cozy squares, local tapas bars, small shops and a relaxed atmosphere that invites you to stay.
A walk through the old town will take you past whitewashed facades, with a surprise on every corner: a painted wall, a hidden patio or a charming square full of orange trees. And the traditional rhythm lives on on the coast too. Fishermen return daily with their catch that goes straight to the markets and kitchens of the city. There they are prepared as it has been done for generations: pure and tasty.
Estepona is not a setting, but a place with a soul. A city where you can not only live, but where you can experience the real Andalusian life up close .
