The Costa del Sol region
The Puerto de la Duquesa is situated almost midway between Castillo de la Duquesa village to the west and the town of Sabinillas to the east. The marina complex is a picturesque port used by fishermen and pleasure craft alike due to the extensive boatyard and off water storage.
Sea fishing is a popular pastime and boats can be hired for reasonable rates. If partying is more your style then catamarans are available to hire that provide a customised half or full day at sea, the route can be chosen by you. Yachting lessons are also available from the local association.
The beaches are “blue flagged” offering a opportunity to relax on wide sandy expanses or take advantage of the activities often available on the Sabinillas side of the port.
The harbour itself is surrounded by attractive apartments and an array of shops bars, restaurants that are essentially traffic free due to the restrictions on vehicle access.
Manilva has previously been both a Roman and a Moorish settlement however the current town dates back to the mid-16 century when King Charles ordered the building of a watch tower to warn of attacks from the Barbary pirates who were persistent in tormenting the southern coast of Spain. By the end of the century a small community had collected around the tower and was located within the Municipality of Casares in 1976 it was given its autonomy and own Villa status.
It has remained mainly Spanish in character and atmosphere, as most of the English and other sizeable nationalities prefer to be on the coast (approx 2 km away) , it therefore still recognises the siesta period where time seems to stand still.
