Marina Bay is a secure development fronting the sea to the west of Estepona. It is about five minutes walk from the Marina, either along by the sea, or by road and ten minutes walk from the town centre. Access to apartments is by lift or stairs and the corridors are well lit and clean.
The development is comprised of four linked buildings and there are two pools "sea-side" with sunbathing lawns. Access to the development is by personal key and this key accesses the main entrance, the beach entrance and each building. From the beach entrance it is about 2 to 3 minutes walk west to Playa del Cristo, a beautiful little bay with beach bars, toilets, showers etc. The main beach, La Rada, is about 10 minutes walk to the east via the Marina.
The Marina provides both moorings for private boats and a home for the fishing community of Estepona. Watching the boats bring in their catches and the auction that follows is an interesting experience. There is an excellent choice of restaurants and bars that provide sustenance throughout the day and evening. As night gets going the discos come to life and add a bit of dance fever for those with energy to spare!
Sunday in the Marina is well worth a visit as there is a tourist market in the morning that is very colourful. Bikinis, jewelry, clothes, souvenirs and all the latest gadgets can be found there!
Marina Bay does have underground carparking but, for those who want to get away from the car, it is possible to walk to most locations.
