Marbella Must-Sees

Marbella features a historical core centered on the 16th-century Casco Antiguo, where the Ermita de Santiago stands as the oldest religious site. The coastal landscape includes the long dunes of Cabopino and the central Playa de Venus. Architectural highlights range from the Roman mosaics of Villa de Río Verde and the Visigothic Basílica de Vega del Mar to the 16th-century Iglesia de la Encarnación. Modern landmarks include the luxury marina of Puerto Banús and the shaded botanical displays of Alameda Park.
