Beach clubs in Bahía de Casares
A luxury beach club on one of the Costa del Sol's quietest stretches of coastline.

Finca Cortesin Beach Club holds a 4.5-star rating from 80 Google reviews. Pricing is at the top end, with sunbeds from €55 and food and drinks to match. The club operates seasonally, typically open from spring through autumn. The Andalucia tourism portal has more on the wider Casares area.
