After the 1755 earthquake, the church sustained serious damage, and was later razed to the ground, leaving just the tower. In the 18th century, a Neoclassical bell-tower was added, decorated with garlands, volutes and bucraniums. The Watch Tower stands over the square of the same name, bearing witness to the festive and musical events that take place there.<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/goo.gl\/maps\/C6aMd7EoxKr\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Google Maps<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Parish Church of Saint Mary of Los Remedios<\/h3>\n<h3><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-88498\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.fuertehoteles.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/estepona-iglesia-de-los-remedios.jpg\" alt=\"Iglesia de nuestra se\u00f1ora de los remedios - Cr\u00e9dito: m.e.s.t.o.c.k \/ Shutterstock.com\" width=\"640\" height=\"420\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.fuertehoteles.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/estepona-iglesia-de-los-remedios.jpg 640w, https:\/\/blog.fuertehoteles.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/estepona-iglesia-de-los-remedios-300x197.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.fuertehoteles.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/estepona-iglesia-de-los-remedios-600x394.jpg 600w, https:\/\/blog.fuertehoteles.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/estepona-iglesia-de-los-remedios-450x295.jpg 450w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/h3>\n<p>This 18th century church was used from 1725 to 1766 as a convent for the Franciscan Friars of the Third Order.

If I had to choose a beach, I\u2019d choose the one at the west end of the port, El Cristo Beach.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s a lovely cove with fine sand that is<em> ideal for visiting with children<\/em>, since it has a low tide that comes up to your knees even when you\u2019re well into the sea, and there are no stones. It has a number of <em>chiringuitos<\/em> and hammock areas, though it you\u2019re looking for peace and quiet, the beach does get very busy in summer at the weekend, so you may want to head to another of the beaches I recommend, El Padr\u00f3n Beach.<\/p>\n<p>This is an ideal place for the more discerning or those who want to enjoy a pleasant, quiet day. From here you can also make out one of the seven watchtowers that remain along the entire coast. They were built between the 15<sup>th<\/sup> and 16<sup>th<\/sup> centuries and formed part of the defence system that remained until the 19<sup>th<\/sup> century. Other quiet beaches away from the centre are: Arroyo Vaquero (Natural Coast Nudist Beach), Ba\u00f1os, Guadalmansa, Saladillo, Salavieja and Veler\u00edn. If you return to the town, you\u2019ll find a longer, busier beach, La Rada Beach, next to the centre.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-88506\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.fuertehoteles.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/estepona-playa.jpg\" alt=\"playa Estepona\" width=\"640\" height=\"420\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.fuertehoteles.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/estepona-playa.jpg 640w, https:\/\/blog.fuertehoteles.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/estepona-playa-300x197.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.fuertehoteles.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/estepona-playa-600x394.jpg 600w, https:\/\/blog.fuertehoteles.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/estepona-playa-450x295.jpg 450w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Its size means you can easily find a place by the sea, though depending on the zone, there are a lot of stones in the swimming area. It has showers, lifeguards, changing areas and disabled access.<\/p>\n<p>The promenade runs parallel to the entire beach, and is home to <em>chiringuitos<\/em> and kids\u2019 leisure areas. When dusk starts to fall, you can enjoy amazing views from Punta de la Plata, one of the borders of La Rada, or from the Port.<\/p>\n<p>This concludes my summary of the best things to see. As night falls, the time comes to recommend some places to continue your now nocturnal outing, without letting the setting of the sun get in the way of your enjoyment of this town.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/blog.fuertehoteles.com\/en\/destinations\/things-to-do-in-estepona\/\">28 things you cannot miss in Estepona<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/blog.fuertehoteles.com\/en\/food-and-drink\/bar-tapas-estepona\/\">Tapas route Estepona.
