The harbour at Marina del Este is a five minute walk down from Las Lomas, but quite an energetic walk back up! Luckily there is a big car park at los Berengueles beach, next to the marina, or in the evenings you can use the marina car park. Marina del Este is rumoured to be more expensive per berth than Puerto Banus and has some fabulous yachts and power-boats. The outer breakwater links the massive rock of Penon de las Caballas to the shore making this surely the prettiest marina on the South Coast. There are a number of restaurants with outdoor tables overlooking the water. At the far end of the marina is a small British run supermarket, an ATM machine and a dive school. The Punta is famed for its diving, with some of the clearest water, cliffs and underwater caves. Next to the marina is los Berengueles beach, a small horseshoe shaped sand and shingle beach with excellent snorkelling and a good beach bar and restaurant. There are 25 beaches within a ten minute drive of the Punta.
