SIESTA TO FIESTA

Marbella

EUROPE · GOLDEN HOUR · OLD TOWN & OCEAN
Behind the yachts and beach clubs hides one of Andalusia's prettiest old towns.
Marbella beach with beach bar and palms

The plan

Plaza de los Naranjos
Orange trees, whitewashed walls, coffee before the crowds. The old town at its best by 9am.
The Golden Mile
Walk or rent a bike from the old town toward Puerto Banús — beach bars all the way.
Puerto Banús at dusk
Superyachts and supercars: come for the people-watching, stay for the sunset.
Chiringuito espetos
Sardines grilled on a stick over driftwood fires. Lunch with your feet in the sand.
Ojén white village
Fifteen minutes uphill and you're in a silent white pueblo looking back at the sea.
