ARRIVING BY TRAIN:
We do not recommend taking the train to your Estepona property. The train tracks stop at Fuengirola, so you would have to continue your journey by bus, train or taxi.
ARRIVING BY BUS:
There is no direct bus to Estepona. You must take two.
To get to your Estepona property by bus, you must first take the Marbella-Airport line, and then from the Marbella Station, take the number 27 bus to Estepona. Bus-stops can be found at the Terminal 1 arrivals and Terminal 2, departures.
Timetable: 06:15, 8.00, 10.00, 12.00, 13.45, 15.45, 17.30, 19.30, 21.30, 23.00. The journey takes approximately 45 minutes. Price: 3,92 €.
The second bus, number 27 leaves frequently, and costs 2,38€
This information is provided in good faith, but do not plan your journey around this timetable without checking the official bus website for exact times and prices before you travel! For more information you can telephone: 902 143 144 or look at the updated timetable and prices on the bus website.
ARRIVING BY TAXI:
There are taxis right outside the door of the airport, ready to take you to your Estepona property. This is by far the most comfortable option.The prices are divided into two categories.
Category 1;
Work days between 6am and 10pm: approximately 0,9 Euros for every kilometre.
Category 2;
Between 10 pm and 6am, Saturdays, Sundays and bank holidays, the whole day; approximately 1,01 Euros every kilometre. A taxi should cost you approximately 80 Euros depending on the category and the exact area within Estepona.
A taxi carries four passengers. Babies must use their own security baby chair, small children under 135cm. must use their own booster seat, and children under 140 cm must not sit in the front. Most Spanish taxi drivers will allow children without their own security chair, because if the police stop you on your journey, you pay the fine, not him!

RECOMMENDED RESTAURANTS:

This information is taken from the Spanish yellow pages. If you see a listing of 159 restaurants, at least you will have an idea of the size of the town, you are thinking of buying a property in, where as if you see a listing of two, think about buying some hens, as your Estepona property will be in a very remote place!
