Are you planning a trip to Marbella in February?
You’re probably wondering if there are plenty of things to do and see, even if the weather turns bad.
In that case, you’re exactly at the right place!
As a local from Costa del Sol, I’ve been living next to Marbella since 2020, and have plenty of personal experience with all the activities it has to offer even in winter months.
In this article, you will find a detailed practical guide that will help you plan your trip and save you a lot of time!
Let’s dive in!
Visiting Marbella in February is a great idea, as it gives you access to some of the best deals on accommodation and activities, and also a less crowded experience of the city.
On the other hand, the weather in February is quite unpredictable and changes quickly, so you need good options for rainy day activities.
To summarize what you’re about to read below, some of the best ways to spend time in Marbella in February is by exploring the old town of Marbella, checking some of the local museums, planning a day trip or attending some local events.
BONUS TIP: Do you need to rent a car in Marbella? No, to explore the city you’re more than good with walking or taking local taxis around the city. For exploring beyond the city limits, I highly recommend renting a car. Check Discover Cars to get the best prices for your car rental.
27 Top Things To Do in Marbella in February
Before we dive in, let me just warn you about some local experts who claim Marbella’s restaurants offer free tapas, or that climbing the La Concha mountain in February is a brilliant idea.
Both of those are not true.
Free tapas with your drink may be native to Southern Spain, but you will only encounter it in places like Granada or Jaen (I have plenty of first-hand experience).
And while La Concha offers stunning views, February is one of the worst months to do the climb since the winter weather comes with unpredictable and fast-changing weather patterns. Trust me, you don’t want to be stuck up on top of the mountain when a sudden rain shower or thunderstorm comes around.
Be careful what you read please and just use common sense. I have added some other things to avoid at the end of the list.
In this list, I will start with some activities that are unique to February 2024, followed by some more generic places of interest and activities suitable for rainy days or bad weather days.

Andalusia Day in Marbella is a family affair. Parks and public areas organize activities for children, such as face painting, games, and storytelling sessions, all themed around Andalusian culture. It’s a great way for the younger generation to connect with their heritage.

A stroll through the cobblestoned streets of Marbella’s Old Town is a charming way to experience the city’s rich cultural past and its laid-back Mediterranean vibe.
While it’s possible to explore the Old Town on your own, hiring a guide can enrich your experience with insights into Marbella’s history and significance. You can arrange for a local walking tour here.

10. Spent Time at the Beach
While February is certainly not the swimming weather, on sunny days spending time by the sea is actually really pleasant.
Marbella has some of the best beaches and it would be a shame to miss out on those just because it’s colder.
Most of the facilities at the beaches are not available in the winter months, so you can’t count on finding sunbeds for rentals anymore, but that shouldn’t stop you from enjoying the beach.
One of my favourite ways to enjoy the beach in winter time is by making my own picnic. Just grab some fruits or baguette from a local supermarket, a blanket, and you’re all set for a wonderful outdoor dining experience.
THINGS TO DO IN MARBELLA IN FEBRUARY
11. Enjoy a Walk on Paseo Maritimo (Coastal Promenade)
Spanning the Mediterranean coast from central Marbella to Puerto Banus, this area offers a peaceful retreat, complete with beautiful ocean views and soft sea breezes.
Paseo Maritimo, adorned with palm trees and home to delightful cafes, eateries, and stores, is a popular spot for both residents and visitors.
Locals often come here for leisurely strolls, bike rides, or just to unwind and observe the bustling surroundings. Paseo Maritimo captures Marbella’s laid-back but energetic essence with its picturesque scenery and lively vibe.
BONUS TIP: You can walk on the coastal promenade from Marbella Marina (Puerto Deportivo) all the way to Puerto Banus! I’ve done this walk a couple of times, and while it’s exhausting on foot, you can rent a bike or book a bike tour (available also in February), and do the trip much faster. On foot, it takes about 40 – 45 minutes.

I personally love Taverna Casa Blanca by Alameda Park for a variety of tapas, The Farm Restaurant in the Old Town for a genuine dining experience, and Manuka on Paseo Maritimo for healthy and vegan choices.
BONUS TIP: What should you eat while in Marbella? The traditional Andalusian dishes like patatas bravas (fried potatoes), pil pil (prawns), espeto de sardinas (sardine skewers), Iberian ham, oxtail stew and Salmojero (cold soup like gazpacho).

Map View: Best Things to do in Marbella in February
Here is my big map of things to do in Marbella – it includes a comprehensive list beyond the places just mentioned in this guide.
What NOT to do in Marbella in February
While it’s a great idea to have tips for what to do, mentioning the things you should avoid doing is equally important.
Here are just a few.
1. Risky Outdoor Activities
Even though February may seem like the perfect time for hiking, you need to be careful when making plans.
February weather is known to be quickly changing, and you might get caught up in a storm without a safe place to hide. That’s why I wouldn’t recommend the La Concha hike in February.
If you don’t know, La Concha is Marbella’s most famous hill, taking its name from the shell shape of the mountain. It’s one of the most popular outdoor activities in Marbella.
2. Boat Trips
There are a few tour companies that operate boat trips in February, like this one offering a sunset cruise, or this one offering a sailing and dolphin-watching experience.
The sea this time of the year is pretty wild, so if you get seasick pretty easily I would advise you to skip this trip.
On the other hand, if you don’t mind the waves, these trips are great because they come with free cancellation up to 24 hours before the trip, so you can cancel easily if the weather turns bad.
The boat trips leave either from Puerto Deportivo de Marbella (main port) or the port in Puerto Banus.
3. Paella
On the main streets, you’ll often find Paella advertised in faded restaurant photos. I tend to steer clear of these places.
Originally from Valencia, Paella varies regionally, but the authentic Paella experience is hard to find in Marbella. Typically, it’s just expensive rice with some meat or seafood on top.
4. Souvenirs Sold by Illegal Vendors
One major annoyance in Costa del Sol is the relentless approach of illegal vendors (manteros). They’re everywhere – on the beach, in restaurants, and bars, even in the winter season.
They often sell fake designer items like shoes, bags, scarves, and belts.
Purchasing from them raises ethical concerns, such as harming local legal businesses and potential ties to organized crime.
5. Tourist Restaurants
Contrary to popular belief, a restaurant having an English menu doesn’t automatically make it a tourist trap. Restaurants need to accommodate non-Spanish speakers to stay afloat.
However, dining where locals do in Southern Spain doesn’t always mean you’ll find quality.
From my experience, I’ve encountered unimpressive meals like bland deep-fried fish and undercooked vegetables.
A telltale sign of a tourist-targeted restaurant is a menu with too wide range of dishes, from Italian and Spanish to Mexican. If they offer burgers, English breakfasts, and other typical holiday foods, they’re likely catering mainly to tourists.
Travel Tips: Visiting Marbella in February 2024
Transport From Malaga Airport
To skip the long taxi lines it’s a good idea to book your airport transfer ahead of time.
They’ll meet you at arrivals, and assist with your bags, and there’s no need to worry about language issues when providing your stay details.
I’ve personally used Get Transfer for various trips, including business travel. They compare prices from local transport providers, helping you find the best deal for your journey.
You can receive a complimentary, no-commitment quote by entering your trip details here.
They’ll request your flight information and will wait for you at no extra cost if your flight is delayed.
For those traveling with children, they offer the option to reserve a child seat, saving you the hassle of bringing your own.
Renting a Car in Marbella
Renting a car for your Marbella trip is a smart choice. It offers more freedom to see Southern Spain compared to public transport.
Marbella’s public transport isn’t extensive, lacking a train service (the airport trains only reach Fuengirola).
I suggest using Discover Cars.
They compare prices from various companies, finding you the best deal. They’re known for their award-winning comparison service, user-friendly interface, and transparent pricing.
You can get a quote here and see different car choices for your trip ahead of time.
Where to Stay in Marbella in Winter
If you’re wondering where to stay in Marbella, that totally depends on your preferences.
If you like more quiet surroundings away from the crowds and noise, and like more botique style of hotels, then the old town is a great choice.
If you’re after sea view and all inclusive type of establishments, you’ll find those scattered along the coastline, mainly between Marbella and Puerto Banus.
For budget stays, the area of old town and further up north will offer the best value for money.
BEST LUXURY HOTELS: Amare Beach Hotel (Adults Only), La Fonda Heritage Hotel (gorgeous place in the old town), Puente Romano Beach Resort (close to Puerto Banus, favourite of celebrities)
BEST MID RANGE HOTELS: Eurostar Oasis Hotel (4 star), Linda Boutique Hotel (in old town), Ona Alanda Club (at the famous Nikki Beach)
BEST BUDGET HOTELS: Hotel Avenida 31, Hotel Central Boutique and Puerta de Aduares – these are all 2 star hotels.
What to Wear in Marbella in February
Marbella can surprise you with both warm sunny days, but also windy very cold days. And that might change from day to day.
It’s best to pack for both types of weather, add some warm layers to your luggage that you can easily take off during the day when you get warmer.
I personally use trainers pretty much all year, but the mornings in February are very cold and sometimes wett, so warmer weather proof shoes are a better option.
Umbrella and sun protection lotion is a must too, you can get sunburned even in February.
