| | Estepona : Introduction | Frommers.com |
 | | Traces of the past remain: a round tower constructed to protect the villagers from the raids of Barbary pirates, who took not only all valuables, including food, but the most beautiful women as well. |
 | | Today, Estepona's recreational port is an attraction, as are its beaches: Costa Natura Km 257 on the N-340, the first legal nude beach of its kind along the Costa del Sol; La Rada, 3km (2 miles) long; and El Cristo, only 550m (1,800 ft.) long. |
 | | Estepona also contains an interesting 15th-century parish church, with the ruins of an old aqueduct nearby (at Salduba). |
