estepona
The old town
Estepona has blossomed into a perfect seaside town with the old white village boating classic Spanish charm
the port
Just 6 kilometers away, you will find the start of an endless coastline of Spanish beaches. The nearest ones being lively and bustling with boardwalk cafes and shops like at Playa de Sabinillas, where chiringuitos (beach bars) serving skewered fresh fish cooked on open flames in old fishing boats is what it's known for! But you can also find more serene and quiet spots in both coastal directions...we certainly have our favorites to recommend. There is no shortage of sun and sand while you are on holiday here in Casares.
ACTIVITIES
horse riding
If you wish to let your inner-cowboy shine during your stay, taking in the Casares mountain views by horseback is a great way to do so. Andalucía is globally known as one of the go-to regions for all things equestrian. Just up the main road, a local establishment hosts countryside rides for all ages & abilities.
Bird-Watching
Malaga province's biggest griffon vulture colony is found in the Sierra Crestellina, a short drive or pleasant hike away from our finca. On clear days, this mountain range rewards you with stunning views of the African coast as an added bonus. Other common sightings in the area include: lesser kestrel, Bonelli's eagle and peregrine falcon, all worthy of an exotic bird watch venture.
Mountain & Road Biking
​
With rolling hills and winding pavement roads combined with a near-perfect climate, discovering Casares by cycle is a worthy method. Rent one at several nearby locations and start your adventure surrounding the finca...or hire a bike on the boardwalk for a more relaxing ride near the sea.
SUP
SUP or Stand UP Paddle boarding is a sustainable and fun way to connect with the ocean. Casares and local seas are calm and perfect for this popular sport that is an accessible activity for the whole family. Take lessons or rent your own and start paddling!
​
A lot of SUP organizers also offer surf, kite surf and other water sports if you are interested for a deeper adventure!
CLIMBING
The famous canyon just across the street from us (literally) has impressive cliffs to clip in and make your way to the top.
Via Ferrata as an alternative to traditional climbing is becoming more and more popular here for obvious reasons.
​
And canyoning is an adventurous fun option too if you want to stay low...
golf
​
With an average of 320 days of sunshine each year, Andalucía is a golfer's paradise. Casares is home to three courses of its own, including the world famous Finca del Cortesin.
