Get there early (and take a picnic) as it can get crowded during the Summer months! The beach gets a good wind making it perfect for kite surfing if you\u2019re the adventurous type.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_787\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-787\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vintagetravel.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/Los-Monteros.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-787\" title=\"Los Monteros\" src=\"https:\/\/www.vintagetravel.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/Los-Monteros.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-787\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Les Monteros Beach<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<h2>No. 4 Calahonda Beach<\/h2>\n<p>A much quieter beach situated at the Western end of Marbella.
