10 Wine Street Estepona
’10 Wine Street Estepona ‘ will take place on July 13 and 14 in the central Plaza del Reloj.
This wine event has become the most important in Estepona because it will host the largest wine tasting that is held outdoors in Spain.
Each of the macro tastings will be accompanied by musical pieces interpreted live by the chamber quartet of the García Fajer Foundation, so the wine tasting will become a sensory experience that will transcend the palate.
The event will allow the possibility of discovering wines which usually cannot be tasted outside their cellars since they are limited editions of which very few bottles are produced.
Official website of the event: http://www.10winestreet.com/
When: July 13 and 14
Where: Plaza del Reloj, Estepona

Maritime processions of Virgen del Carmen
The processions of Virgen del Carmen are a seafaring tradition lived with fervour and great devotion in the province of Malaga.
Along the entire coast, from Nerja to Manilva, are held great maritime processions in honour of Virgen del Carmen, the patron saint of sailors. The image is transferred from the church to the port or the beach where it is placed on a boat and accompanied by festooned pleasure boats and packed with devotees.
Especially recommended are the processions in Torre del Mar, in El Palo, Pedregalejo and Huelin, in Malaga city and in the popular Fishermen´s district of La Carihuela in Torremolinos as well as in in Estepona where the Virgen del Carmen is the local patron and thus occupies a privileged place in the maritime procession. In addition to embellishing the boats, the procession is accompanied by fireworks. Very recommended.
When: 16 July
Where: Along the entire coast
Torre del Mar International Air Festival
The beach of Torre del Mar will host on 14 July the most important air exhibition of the entire Spanish coast this summer, in the IV International Air Festival ‘Torre del Mar Air Show’, attended by 42 aircraft from five different countries (Belgium, Switzerland, England, Italy and Spain).
When: July 14
