Birdwatching on the Costa del Sol - 2025
Multiple
7 nights
London Gatwick Airport
Estepona, Costa del Sol, Spain
Every year, millions of migratory birds travel between Africa and Europe through the Strait of Gibraltar, the closest point between the two continents. Southern Spain, especially near the Strait, is one of the best places to witness this. On this birdwatching holiday, we’ll visit some of the most interesting birdwatching sites that southern Spain has to offer. We’ll observe birds like honey buzzards, booted eagles, kites, storks, osprey, chiffchaffs, and redstarts filling the sky during their incredible journeys. Five included excursions - Rivers Guadiaro and Palmones (half day) - Tarifa (full day) - La Janda and Alcornocales Natural Park (full day) - River Guadalhorce (full day) - Ronda Mountains (full day) A stay at the H10 Estepona Palace combines old Andalusian charm with all the mod cons of a deluxe hotel. The hotel has real wow factor, with its bright and airy lobby and sweeping sea views from many of its public rooms. Every guest room has a terrace or balcony, and there are three bars, two restaurants, two pools and a hairdresser and spa (both extra charge). It’s a world away from the tourist hotspots of the Costa del Sol – more of a haven of tranquillity to relax and recharge.

Location
)
The hotel is sufficiently far from Estepona to provide privacy around the property and space on the beach, but a 30-minute stroll is enough to take you the marina and a little further to town. Estepona itself has real Spanish character, which is evident in its cobbled streets and sun-splashed plazas. The town is known for its bold, colourful street murals, all painted by local artists, which have transformed the town into a museum of urban art. It’s a place where you can truly relax and unwind, while still enjo...
