Puerto Banus

Puerto Banus is the most fashionable resort in Southern Spain. Cafes, restaurants and boutiques are clustered around the harbour. The choice of international restaurants is amazing, with most of them situated right on the marina with spectacular views. The nightlife in Puerto Banus is incredible, with a huge choice of alfresco bars, casinos, piano clubs and discos.

Finest stores in the world

Puerto Banus and Marbella boast some of the finest stores in the world for clothes, furnishings and all the accessories of luxury living. If shopping is your passion designer names such as Gucci, Chanel, Armani and Versace are here in abundance.

The Marina

The focal point of Puerto Banus is the marina. It has berths for 915 boats, including those of the King of Saudi Arabia and several of the world's wealthiest individuals. Behind the harbour lie streets filled with bars, boutiques and nightclubs.

The marina has slips for boats and ships from 8 to 50 meters. Its surface area is 15 hectares, and its depth ranges from 3 to 6 meters within the marina, with 7.5 meters at its entrance. There is beach on each side of the marina. Many of the yachts moored within can enjoy an unobstructed view of La Concha mountain, one of the coast's landmarks.

Something for Everyone

Banus has fast become one of the trendiest and most popular holiday destinations anywhere in Europe. One of the main attractions is that it has something to offer everyone. From Stag and Hen Dos to Champagne Parties there is a place and a venue to meet every requirement and budget.

Big Game Fishing

If you are a Big Game Fishing enthusiast or an amateur who loves a day out on the water away from the hustle and bustle of Marbella and Benalmadena, Puerto Banus has something to offer everyone who fancies wielding a fishing rod.

The Costa del Sol is considered to be one of the most varied Big Game Fishing places in the world due to the influence of the warm currents of the Mediterranean Sea and the wide variety of species that can be found here. Temperature breaks are created where bodies of warm and cool water are pushed up against each other and this brings with it clouds of bait-fish which the big predators hunt for with a passion. The local Mediterranean and Atlantic waters have seen several types of Sharks plus others species such as Marlin, Swordfish, Tuna, Bonitos, and others.

Want to Party?

Then Puerto Banus is the right place...as long as you have plenty of euros. There are numerous clubs right in the heart of Puerto Banus and some popular ones just a few minutes drive away. All the clubs have different party nights, music so give them a call to see what's on. Some charge an entrance fee and you pay for drinks, some charge one price and all drinks are included...it depends. But expect it to be expensive! You get what you pay for!
