With its exclusive location, Marbella has become
the reference point for the tourism world,
having lost neither its typically Andalusian flavour
nor its historical essence. Mountain and sea, tradition
and modernity come together in this Mediterranean
town to offer the visitor a multi-cultural
and cosmopolitan ambience, open to progress
and based on conviviality and the welcoming nature
of the locals.
The town of Marbella is one of the best-known in
the world. Always bathed in light, the town bases
its activity on global tourism, through an offer
with huge potential: 26 kilometres of beach, mountains,
16 golf courses, luxury hotels, the most beautiful
natural setting, 4 marinas including the internationally-renowned
Puerto Banús – shopping centres and
a buzzing night life.
Services:
Puerto Banús, situated
6 kms. from Marbella, is regarded as one of the
most celebrated marinas on the Spanish and European
coastline, and owes its name to its developer, Don
José Banús. It was officially established
in 1968 and accommodates 915 moorings for some of
the world´s most luxurious boats. Its famous
marina and magnificent selection of internationally-renowned
bars, restaurants and shops have made it a place
packed with glamour and charm for all its visitors.

It
is no coincidence that Marbella has become a reference
point for elite tourism: from
the beginning of its development as a tourist
enclave in the mid-sixties, actors, artists and
personalities from every sphere of life have passed
through, underlining its elegant and refined image
at fiestas and social events.
Marbella is also a paradigm within the hotel
industry for its high concentration of five-star
hotels and establishments dedicated to
the restaurant industry, with
nearly 800 of them including every type of cuisine
on earth. |
Moreover,
today, the district of Marbella is host to Spain´s
most important commercial offer: a wide-ranging
catalogue of international and brand name shops
as well as shopping centres of considerable renown
have made this town a paradise of distinction
and a true shopping delight.

In
Marbella, too, there is culture and history
aplenty, as is evidenced by the magnificent
Casco Antiguo or Old Town, with its narrow,
white streets and balconies covered with flowers,
location of the Plaza de los Naranjos and
16th century Town Hall building; the Ermita
de Santiago, the town’s first Christian
church, built in the 15th century, and the
16th century Casa del Corregidor. |

Very
close by is the Iglesia de la Encarnación,
construction on which was started in the
17th century. You can also visit the remains
of the town walls, which surrounded the
Muslim town, as well as the Arabic Castle.

Climate:
|
Given its geographical
situation, Marbella enjoys a special
microclimate with mild temperatures throughout
the year, an annual average of 18.7 degrees
and a sun which shines brightly for twelve
months of the year.
This microclimate is due to the confluence
in the Marbellan region of a series of geographical
factors which make the general climatic
conditions of the Costa del Sol take on
a uniqueness which shapes the so-called
Marbellan microclimate,
these factors being:
- The longitudinal location of the town
in respect of the parallels
- The character of its coastal inlets
- The predominant orientation of its land
mass towards sunny spots
- The presence of mountains in the North
- The closeness of a warm sea and its
strategic situation on the route of the
south-west winds originating from the
Straits of Gibraltar
These factors cause the average annual
temperatures to hover around 18ºC.
Summer sees the highest of the year,
with an average around 20-25ºC, milder
than in the adjacent towns.
In addition, Marbella has no climatological
winter because the monthly averages do not
fall below 6ºC. |
