If you read gossip magazines like Heat and Now, throughout the summer you will see pictures of all the celebrities at either The Ocean Club or Buddha Beach in Puerto Banus. Basically these are very glitzy beach clubs where you go to be seen - like a night club but open during the day too. They are full of young people (some with lots of money) but many save all year to mingle with the rich and famous and cover each other in champagne at the famous "Spray Parties"
There are beaches on either side of Puerto Banus Port are beaches but don't expect gorgeous golden sand - the beaches aren´t great. Around Puerto Banus it can be quite stony and difficult to get in the water. Further along towards Marbella in one direction and San Pedro in one direction and Estepona in the other it gets sandier.
If you just want cheap day out on the beach, take your towels, parasol and coolbox. If you don't mind spending between €5-10 on a sunbed, many of the chiriguitos (beach restaurants) have them. You may feel obliged to buy drinks and food from them too.
If you are feeling really flush and fancy, well then Buddha Beach or Ocean Club may be for you . . . they have the big round "chill out" beds that accommodate 4 people . . . but at a price.
Chiringuitos (Beach Bar/Restaurants) are great to keep the kids happy especially if they are at the age where they don't want to sit still in a restaurant and eat. Azucar Beach in Puerto Banus and Bora Bora in San Pedro have play areas.
Puerto Banus Beaches & Beach Clubs
The Ocean Club The Ocean Club Puerto Banus Website We have been to this beach club a couple of times. The swimming pool is very large - it was the old Puerto Banus public lido. The facilities here are great with a choice of places to eat, a cocktail bar which does amazing fruit smoothies and a few designer shops. Thre are good showering faciities an changing rooms so you can freshen up if you are staying on in the evening. During the high season they have fashion shows and special events with club music and podium dancers on Sundays. But it's not a cheap day out! |
Buddha Beach Buddha Beach Puerto Banus Website Buddha Beach has become the "place to be" in Puerto Banus. It has a swimming pool and private beach area and last year Alexander O'Neil, Imagination, Rose Royce and the Gypsy Kings performed there. It has a good restaurant and Limelight beach parties every Thursday during the summer season. |

It is 500 metres long with plenty of room and lots of sunbeds. Beach bar chiriguitos are situated on the beach and during the summer months life guards man the lookout tower. |
Mistral Beach, Puerto Banus Mistral Beach is at the San Pedro end of Puerto Banus about a 20 minute walk from the port past Plaza Beach, The Ocean Club, Buddha Beach, Pedro's and next to the Guadalpin Banus Hotel. If you want to hire a jet ski, water ski, wake board, ride on a banana boat or rent a pedalo this is the place to go as it offers most waersports. Always very busy with lively atmosphere. Beach bar offernig an extensive menu serving good food. |
Plaza Beach First beach club next to the Plaza Suites Hotel next to the entrance to Puerto Banus. Attracts younger set playing pretty loud house music. Very good beach restaurant with comfortable sofas and chairs which offers varied menu. |
Pedro's Beach Pedro's Beach Puerto Banus Website More of a chill out beach used by the locals and sunbathers who prefer more classic songs broadcast at a comfortable volume! This is my favourite beach as it serves the best prawn pil pil, rosada, calamares and chicken that I have eaten on a Spanish Beach. Try Pedro's special mixed salad with its Moroccan rice and also a jug of sangria is excellent here. Very informal with wooden tables and large metal beer barrels used for seating. Pedro himself is usually there keeping an eye on things. Highly recommended. |
Astral Beach Astral Beach Puerto Banus Website Astral Beach is a beach bar on the eastern entrance to Puerto Banus near the large status. It is always very busy and a lovely, lively place to go in the summer for a drink. Serve some amazing cocktails and live chill out music/jazz played in the evenings during the high season. Only problem I have with it is the height of the chairs to try and climb up into so I opt for one of the benches or sofas! |
