Places in Spain - Sabinillas, Costa del Sol, Andalucia

 

Just about 1km from Puerto de la Duquesa, along the main N340 highway, lies a small village community that has just latched on to the holiday business. Sabinillas is predominantly a market town with a street market every Friday and a massive car boot sale and market every Sunday.

There are many bars and restaurants here but very few hotels. The town has retained much of its original charm yet apartment blocks are springing up on every corner. There is a large community of English residents here who fit quite comfortably into the community and are accepted without problems.

 

 
The village of Sabinillas tends to be described as an off-shoot of Estepona yet it is rightfully a community all of its own. It has a wonderful sandy beach that stretches the whole length of the village. The council are currently constructing a new Paseo along its length. Fishing boats still operate from here with a degree of success.

The town is quiet enough yet not far away are the big resorts of Marbella, Estepona and Puerto Banus.

 

Set back from the busy main road are several wonderful new developments of apartments, town houses and villas.

The village has everything you would expect from a progressive Costa del Sol location, with ample banks, shops, cafes and other services. Most of the village life revolves around the town square where you will find the Post Office, Farmacia, Taxi rank and the village church. With exception to the busy N340 highway, the village is quiet and has a sleepy atmosphere. It hardly comes alive at night and nothing moves quickly.

 

The village is served by several schools, one of which offer Spanish lessons for the English, organised by the tourist board at very low cost. It is imagined that in a few years time the village will be an integral part of the Costa holiday scene.

 

Sabinillas has recently undergone major changes. The N340 that has always cut the town in two has now been diverted under the town by means of a short tunnel. What was once the market place now has a block of flats on it. There are new apartments springing up all over. The Paseo Maritimo however is still many years behind the rest of the coast.
