The Esteponan coastline, low lyinf and sandy, extends over more than 20 km of coast,
offering a succession of beaches with differing degrees of usage and popularity
according to the area.
The following is a list of each of the beaches indicating the lenght of the coastline in
each case:
- La Galera 960 m.
- Bahía Dorada 1.120 m.
- Arroyo Vaquero 585 m.
- Costa Natura (Nud) 400 m.
- Guadalobón 1.860 m.
- Del Cristo 680 m.
- La Rada (Cent) 2.630 m.
- Punta de la Plata 2.220 m.
- Punta Pinillo 1.290 m.
- Del Castor 2.040 m.
- De Bella 1.220 m.
- Guadalmansa 1.370 m.
- Del Saladillo 2.630 m.
- Casasola 910 m.
- La Atalaya 1.070 m.
Rada beach located in front ot the town centre, has recently been substantially
improved, and having been awarded the European Blue Flag is unquestionably
inviting. Apart from being the longest, it also has all the necessary facilities available
and is undoubtedly the most popular beach throughout the year.
The beach at Costa Natura deserves a special mention because of its somewhat
different offer: it was the first authorised nudist beach on the Costa del Sol.
Being sheltered from the winds, Cristo's Beach, or "La Playa del Cristo", which forms
a charming cove, also recently improved, is ideal any time of the year.
The beaches of "La Galera" and "Bahía Dorada" are distinguished from the rest by
their beauty which interrupts the continuity of the other beaches
(a rocky area with cliffs forming enchanting coastal landscapes).
