Marbella is not only synonymous with luxury and beaches; it is also a city embraced by the mountains that offers spectacular panoramic views. If you are a photography enthusiast or simply looking for a moment of contemplation, we show you which are the best viewpoints in Marbella and why Hotel Benabola is the perfect base for exploring them.

From Sierra Blanca to the Mediterranean

The surroundings of Marbella are dotted with strategic points that offer unforgettable perspectives. Here are some of the most prominent:

  • Nagüeles Viewpoint (Mirador de Nagüeles) Located on the road that ascends towards the Sierra Blanca, this viewpoint is easily accessible and very popular. From here, you can capture an impressive panorama of Marbella’s Golden Mile and the entire coastline, with the Mediterranean stretching out to the horizon. It is the ideal place to watch the city light up at sunset.
  • La Concha: The Roof of Marbella For the more adventurous, the climb to La Concha (the most emblematic peak in the area) rewards you with the most impressive view. From its 1,215 meters, the panorama is unparalleled: you can see the entire Costa del Sol, Gibraltar, and, on clear days, even the coast of Africa. It’s a day trip, but the visual reward is immense.
  • The Old Town and its Urban Views Although less elevated, a walk through the upper parts of the Old Town (such as the castle wall) offers charming views of the traditional architecture, the narrow white streets, and the contrast with the blue sea. It is a more intimate and cultural perspective of Marbella.
