PUERTO BANS
PUERTO JOS BANS, IS A SUPER
LUXURY MARINA THAT IS LOCATED
IN THE AREA OF NUEVA ANDALUCA,
TO THE SOUTHWEST OF MARBELLA,
SPAIN. BANS ATTRACTS IN THE
REGION OF 5M VISITORS EACH YEAR.

Puerto Jos Bans, more commonly known as


Puerto Bans is a luxury marina located in the area
of Nueva Andaluca, to the southwest of Marbella,
Spain on the Costa del Sol.
It was built in May 1970 by Jos Bans, a local
property developer, as a luxury marina and
shopping complex. It has since become one of the
largest entertainment centres in the Costa del Sol,
with 5 million annual visitors, and is popular with
international celebrities.
Being developed around a coastal village in the
Mediterranean architectural style, Puerto Bans
contains expensive shopping malls, as well as an
array of bars, nightclubs and restaurants that are

01

located around the vicinity of the marina.


It is also known during the summer months, as the
European hot spot for luxury cars and yachts, sported
by the wealthy Spaniards of Marbella, as well as
attracting celebrities and other wealthy owners such
as the Sheikhs. Yachts around the harbour can be
spotted valuing upto 90m.
The Marina itself has berths for 915 boats, including
those of the King of Saudi Arabia. The marina has
slips for boats and ships from 850 metres (26164
ft). There is a beach on each side of the marina
where boats can be hired to those who are lucky
enough. It seems in Marbella, everyone can be rich
and famous for a a day if desired. Unfortunatley,

most of the Yachts that are berthed are


private, and no-one but staff can board to
view the luxury interiors and service suites.
However, during peak times of the year, some
boats open for Public entry, showcasing the
wealth and glory of the Marina at its finest.
Those who want to take their boats for a
ride in the sun can enjoy a Repsol fill-up at
the Marina, as well as a dock for Cruise
Liners - a recent addition as of 2011. Since
then, a luxury 5* hotel has been placed in the
harbour side line-up of amenities, along with
access to Water Taxis and Airport Shuttle
Buses allowing for National, International and
European tourists to visit casually and easily.

Just outside of the Marina itself, lies several


architectural streets, 2 beaches and a smaller,
quieter and much more quaint Marina. The
streets are laid with benches, trees, sculptures,
art work and shops, whilst the beaches feature

Popular celebrity hang out spots, and the

place to be for Champagne Spray Parties has


created a daytime party fad only seen in the
trendy, youthful Marbs. But, if you want to
relax in the sun, one has many options in and
around the Marina to catch the rays and chill
out with a cocktail. The Bajadilla Marina is a
smaller version of Puerto Bans, and situated
right around the corner. With mooring for 400
boats and yachts, this Marina is one to check
out also, with a light-house turned church and
surrounding Mediterranean architecture.

CASTILLO DE SOHAIL

The Castillo Sohail (Sohail


Castle), which was destroyed and
rebuilt several times, is without a
doubt the epitome of monuments,
both for its long and turbulent
history and its unmistakable
silhouette that has become the
symbol of the city. The fortress
is surrounded by powerful square
towers and every part of it has
been meticulously restored to
prevent deterioration and to
render it useful as a cultural and
tourist resource since, as has been
stated, it has been converted into a
remarkable open-air auditorium.
Inside it a small museum has been
set up with models that help in
understanding the history of the
place.

PLAZA DE LOS NARANJOS

The Plaza de los Naranjos is a


plaza located in the old town of
Marbella, Spain. The plaza dates
from 1485, after the Christian
conquest of the city from The
Moors; the area was created
to be the urban hub of the city.
The plaza is framed by typical
white Andalusian houses and
three historic buildings: the
Casa Consistorial, the Casa del
Corregidor and the Ermita de
Santiago. In the center of the
plaza, there is a Renaissance
fountain surrounded by orange
trees, planted in 1941, from which
the square now takes its name.
Furthermore it is now home to
the Town Hall, set in amongst an
array of Spanish restaurants, bars
and cafes, being the perfect spot
for some lunch. In the evening
the trees, and buildings are lit
up creating a romantic setting
in the heart of the city. Close by

with local, boutqiue shops, such
as Calle Remedios, Calle de los
Dolores, and Calle San Cristobal.

MALAGA CITY CENTRE

The city has recently emerged


as a cultural centre, with fifteen
museums in the city. These
include the new Carmen
Thyssen Museum and the very
different Glass and Crystal
Museum, which modern is take
on a decorative arts museum.
The Automobile Museum has a
wonderful collection of vintage
cars. The Picasso Museum that
was inaugurated in 2003 is a
must for lovers of modern art and
remains one of the most popular
tourist attractions in the city. Early
in 2012 the Palacio de la Aduana
inaugurated the Museo de Bellas
Artes, which has treasures of 19th
century art and archaeology.

MARBELLA OLD TOWN

Malaga has more than 500 food


businesses in the historic centre,
which include restaurants, cafes,
bars, and tapas vendors, all
concentrated in a one kilometre
square area. One can find many
fish restaurants due to the port
and the famous fried fish that
some say made Malaga famous
a long time ago. The city boasts
many wine bars for those who
want to indulge in Malagan
wine, such as the Restaurante El
Pimpi and the Antigua Casa de
Guardia.

With charming local characters,


culture, flowers and stunning
scenic views at every turn, the
Old Town is a great alternative to
the bustling town centre, whether
it be daytime or the evening.

Malaga also has a great shopping


quarter - Calle Larios and Calle
Nueva have many shops in the
historic centre. El Corte Ingles
is a designer department store
offering local and international
luxury products, ranging from
homeware to clothing and
stationary. A must visit for
shopping fans wanting a bargain.

The Old Town of Marbella, is


lined with beautiful whitewashed,
quaint streets, squares, churches,
art, shops, cafes and restaurants.

SELWO MARINA

Selwo Marina is a small marine


park located in Benalmdena,
Spain. It is the only park of its
kind in Andalusia. The park has 4
areas; Antillas, Las Hondonada,
Amazonia and Isla de Hielo.
Antillas is where the dolphin and
sea lion pools are located. There
are 4 large pools, three of which
are home to their three bottlenose
dolphins, and the last used for
interactive programmes such
as Swim With a Sea Lion. Las
Hondonada is the area where
both the Bird and Snake Shows
take place. There are also aviaries
to view the parrots when they
arent performing. Amazonia is a
small indoor area containing tank
of snakes, lizards, fish, caimans
and a collection of others. Isla de
Hielo translates to Island of Ice
and is home to their collection of
penguins. The penguin exhibit
mimics that of their natural
habitat; the amount of light they
receive during the day is relative
to what they would receive in the
wild, so that during the summer
the lights are at their dimmest,
and in winter they are at their
brightest.

Visit: The Old Town

MYSTICAL, MAGICAL &


TYPICALLY SPANISH

A visitor who arrives without prior knowledge will surely


be surprised by the Old Quarter of Marbella, as it is not
common for a city that is linked by choice to the modern
world and large scale tourism to have managed to preserve
the imprint of the past in an equal or greater degree than
those localities whose fame is based on the historic and
artistic legacies that they have inherited. The street plan
of this part of the city preserves the irregular layout that
is characteristic of the Arabic era, although some of its
narrow streets open onto plazas designed immediately
after the Christian Conquest. Of its ancient heritage
special note should be taken of the Alcazaba or the Castle,
in whose interior the original Arabic city was concentrated.
Los Naranjos Plaza (Plaza of the Orange Trees) is the result
of the urban reorganisation carried by the conquerors.
The Ayuntamiento (City Hall) stands on this beautiful
plaza. It was built in the sixteenth century and enlarged in
the eighteenth. Even older than the Ayuntamiento is the
Casa del Corregidor (House of the Magistrate), adjoining
the Capilla de Santiago Apstol (Chapel of Saint James the

13

14

Visit: The Old Town

Apostle), both of which were built in the


sixteenth century.
The attraction of Los Naranjos Plaza,
however, does not lie exclusively in the
aforementioned noble buildings but
also in the way it continues in a sense
to be the nerve centre of the old city.
Numerous establishments of all types
confer upon this corner of Marbella a
distinctive atmosphere, and its broad
and well-planned terraces are always
filled with tourists who generally choose
this place for a short rest after their tour
of the historical district.
The former Hospital Bazn (sixteenth
century) today houses the Museo del
Grabado Espaol (Museum of Spanish
Engraving), considered the best of its
type in Spain. Not very far away from

15

this complex of monuments stands La


Encarnacin Church, a temple of huge
dimensions whose construction dates
back to the seventeenth century.
Surrounding the streets and historical
context are independant, quaint shops,
adding value and attraction to tourists
and those looking for unusual, Spanish
goods.
Despite the historical and artistic value
of these buildings, however, the Old
Quarter of Marbella is above all a
refuge of enchantment and tranquillity
where the nobility of its buildings
mixes with charming establishments
and bustling terraces, all in a context
of cosmopolitanism and tradition that
blend with the naturalness that comes
from having always coexisted.

Visit: The Old Town

WHILE RELIGION IS TAKEN


WITH ABSOLUTE SERIOUSNESS,
THERE IS A VERY LARGE
INGREDIENT OF LAUGHTER
AND ENJOYMENT THAT SPICES
SPANISH CATHOLICISM.

Religion in Spain has seen many faces and


survived many struggles through the centuries.
Today, Spain is a predominately Catholic
country. However, with the continued influx
of foreigners, numerous religions are also
observed and accounted for throughout Spain.
Catholicism has played, and continues to play
such a large role in the life of the country,
that it can easily be called one of the bases
on which the country stands politically and
culturally.
Every year, there are numerous events
organised in Marbella. They take place, in
both the winter and summer months. The
events give visitors a fantastic opportunity
to learn more about the local culture and
traditions.
Religious events such as the Virgin del Carmen
or the celebrations in honour of Marbellas
patron Saint, San Bernab are popular local
celebrations. The Tapa Feria is another one
that comes highly recommended. Here are
some local events that should not be missed;
The Three Kings parade takes place on
the 5th of January. The parade is always
a huge hit with children who can see the
three Kings accompanied by their favourite
cartoon characters, all hurling sweets as they
pass by. The floats carrying the Kings pass
through Marbellas main streets Huerta de los
Cristales, Severo Ochoa and Ricardo Soriano.

and last for a week. The day fair and nightly


celebrations take place all over Marbella, but
in particular, in the Albarizas area. Flamenco,
dancing, plenty of drinking and eating,
concerts and parades. Theres something for
everyone.
As with all coastal towns in Spain, Marbella
also celebrates the Virgin del Carmen. The
Virgin of the sea. Celebrations take place on
the 16th of July. The parade passes through
the traditional fishing port, to Puerto Banus
and onto the Marina. The Virgin is eventually
put back in the Church of Nuestra Seora de
la Encarnacion.
The Romeria de la Cruz de Juanar takes place
every year on the 3rd of May. The Romeros
(participants) go by foot to the Cruz de
Juanar (altitude 1.160m). Legend has it that
several fisherman got disorientated in the fog.
When the fog cleared, the Juanar peak in the
Sierra Blanca served as a guiding point back to
safety. They decided to express their gratitude
by creating the yearly pilgrimage.
More information, times and dates for the
noted events can be found online or at your
local tourist information centre.

Marbellas patron Saint is San Bernabe (Saint


Bernard). Every year there are celebrations in
his honour that start around the 11th of June

Fashion

Puerto Bans has become Marbellas hot spot


for shopping and street style, with fashionistas
lining the streets, bars and nightclubs.
Despite being fairly small in size, Puerto
Banus is a haven for shop-a-holics. With
everything from one of the biggest Corte
Ingles department stores in Spain and plenty
of highstreet names, to top-end designer
boutiques, Puerto Banus is it all.
The town has several shopping centres,
including Marina Banus and Centro Plaza,
however you will find the majority of the
towns designer labels in the marina area,
along Calle Ribera.

as: Louis Vuitton, Cartier, Tom Ford, D&G,
Lanvin, La Perla, Emporio Armani, Burberry,
Gucci, Michael Kors, Missoni, Roberto

Situated along the Costa del Sol, Marbella is Spains answer to St Tropez. This chic holiday resort is a favoured get-away among the rich
and famous and its not hard to see why. Theres an endless supply of
world-class restaurants, luxury hotels, spectacular golf courses, fashionable shops, a lovely marina and a vast number of lively bars and
clubs to keep you entertained til sunrise.
Marbella may be the most famous place on the Costa del Sol but there
are numerous other areas that are well worth a visit! There is a wealth
of things on offer in the surrounding region with each destination offering its own individual qualities. You can visit the white village Mijas
and wander the cobbled streets, dine in the mountains at Benahavis or
go down to Gibraltar to see the rock and the monkeys that reside there.
With the N340 coastal motorway traveling right across the Coast it is
extremely easy for those that are unfamiliar with the area to navigate
their way around the Coast! All the areas listed are within a two hour

drive of Marbella and hiring a rental car at Malaga Airport is often the most popular and cost
effective way of getting around! Marbella doesnt do anything by halves, and thats certainly
true of its beaches. Youve got 24 of them streaking their way across a 25-kilometre stretch from
Guadalmina to Las Chapas via Puerto Banus. They come with dark sand or pebbles. Most do
a great line in watersports, and several are backed by shops and restaurants on the Paseo Maritimo walkway.
Marbella has plenty more history, thanks to the Romans who left their sandalled mark in the
suburban San Pedro area. Here, you can visit their old baths and take in the ruins of the Rio
Verde Roman Villa. For trips further afield about an hour-and-a-half by bus theres Ronda,
a city sliced in half by the dramatic Tajo Gorge. One side has the old town, the other a new
quarter packed with smart shops and restaurants.

Bullfighting

FIGHTING
SPIRIT

THEY SAY THAT TO UNDERSTAND THE


SPANISH YOU MUST FIRST GO TO A
BULLFIGHT!

Spain has always been famous for its bullfights as have other countries all over the
world.. In Spain the bullfight is called the
Fiesta Nacional (The national Sport). There
are few places in Spain where a bull-ring cant
be found within a short drive. It is the most
common thing associated with Spain, and
rightly so for its origins date back to 711AD
when the first bullfight took place in honour
of the crowning of King Alfons VIII. Every
week, all over Spain, many thousands of
Spaniards flock to the nearest bullring, but not
all Spaniards agree with the sport, or like it.
It is reported that each year, within Spain
alone, 24,000 bulls are killed in front of
an audience of 30 million people. The
bullfighting season usually runs from March to
October depending on Province. Bullfighting
was originally done on horseback and was a
sport reserved for the aristocracy.

29

30

Bullfighting

COURAGE AND GRACE IS A


FORMIDABLE MIXTURE. THE ONLY
PLACE TO SEE IT IS THE BULLRING.

There are bullfights every day in Marbella and


on the Costa del Sol from May through to the
end of summer. The timetable for the Sunday
bull fight timetable comes a week before the
actual bull fight.
You can buy tickets for the bullfight just in
front of the bullring or at the bullfight ticket
office itself in the walls of the Marbella bull
ring or any other bull ring in Spain. On the
day of the fight the ticket offices will remain
open from 10am until the fight starts.
You can also buy tickets on the internet
through an online internet bullfight ticket
office. Below you see a typical ticket seller on a
street corner on the day of the fight.
Bullfight times change as the days get shorter.
At the beginning of May the bull fights start
at 7pm and as the month progresses, the times
are brought forward.
After the bullfight you can buy a large
colourful bullfight poster showing the names
of the bullfighters, the venue and the date
amongst with other souvenirs.
Bullfighting in Spain still has a big following
and most fights or corridas have a good turn
out on Sundays.
