About Playa de la Rada

La Rada is the most famous and most visited beach in Estepona: a long urban beach of dark sand in the centre of town, running from the port, which separates it from Playa del Cristo, to Punta Plata. The seafront promenade, with its gardens, cafés and restaurants, follows it the whole way. It is a good choice for a beach day combined with lunch and a walk through Estepona’s flower-filled old town.
