Puerto Banus


If rubbing shoulders with the rich and famous appeals to you then look no further than Puerto Banus. The legendary playground of jet-setters, royalty and international celebrities, Puerto Banus attracts party-goers from all over the world.

Boasting multi-million dollar yachts in its 915-berth marina, extensive sandy beaches lined with chiringuitos, numerous nightclubs, piano bars, cocktail bars, pubs, clubs, discotheques, cafes, sports bars and, of course, its Casino, the bustling, vibrant port has everything on offer to satisfy the most demanding of tastes.

Wining and dining in the many restaurants is a culinary delight, with top-quality international cuisine on offer. Exotic jewellery, high fashions and pricey designer brands compete to catch the eye in the stylish, boutique-lined narrow streets.

The more energetically inclined can enjoy water sports, swimming, jet-skiing and paragliding, or even charter a yacht. For those who seek a peaceful interlude there is the Plaza de Antonio Banderas, a wide, spacious square just above the port, ideal for relaxing on a bench in the shade, soothed by the sound of nearby fountains, until once more refreshed and ready for the next venture.

Just a few steps away lies El Corte Ingles, the modern, multi-storey, high-quality department store, and just around the corner is the multi-cinema complex. For sculpture lovers a superb, three-ton Rhino statue by Salvador Dali completes the larger-than-life picture that is the exhilarating, fun-loving, modern-day Puerto Banus.
