Things to do
Hit Old Town Marbella
Marbella's not all glitz, glamour and bling, you know. Leave the high-rolling casinos of Puerto Banus and the palatial villas of the Golden Mile and hit the Old Town area. That's a place of whitewashed cottages, bougainvillea blooms and traditional plazas – something of a living museum to Andalusian life. If it tickles your fancy, the parks just to the north house the curious Museo del Bonsai, where gnarled bonsai trees and wild olive trees of all shapes and sizes are the main exhibit – a little offbeat and fun.
Activities
Marbella fuses fun and relaxation
Pina coladas in the sun and the delights of Andalusian dining are just one way to dust off a day in Marbella. Sunset viewing and stargazing up in the heights of the Sierra Blanca are another. Wine tasting and yoga classes offer something else again. And that's just the evenings. Mornings and afternoons will zip away in a medley of sailing lessons, sunbathing sessions, history tours of old villages, languorous seafood lunches, scuba dives, dolphin and whale watching – the list goes on.
Weather
Local weather for your stay in Marbella holiday homes
Marbella has 4 seasons that peak with the scorching summer months between June and August. That's high time for yachties and jet-setters to come and hop between the cocktail bars of the Golden Mile and the stylish eateries of Puerto Banus – expect temperatures that creep up to 30 degrees, most days. The winter is cooler, with average mercury levels around 12-15 degrees. Book Marbella holiday rentals then if you want to sightsee without the crowds, not to mention ski in the nearby Sierra Nevada resorts.
Natural features
Marbella is pizzazz under the Sierra Blanca
Marbella has patches of yellow-sanded beachfront punctuating the whole stretch of the Golden Mile, which connects it to nearby Puerto Banus, and loads of scuba diving and whale watching goes on in the waters of the nearby Mediterranean Sea. The mountains are what really dominate the landscape, though, forever rising and falling with the foothills of the Sierra Blanca. You can drive inland to find the Sierra de las Nieves Natural Park. That's utterly spectacular, with fir forests, gorges trodden by Spanish ibex, and – come spring – blooming meadows.
