San Pedro was originally built to produce a new agricultural colony and many of the original buildings survive today. In the main pedestrianised central plaza that is surrounded with palm trees you will find the Parish Church built by the Marques del Duero in 1866, it is in traditional colonial style and stands proud in the centre of the town.
San Pedro is perfect for the explorer; its winding narrow streets provide a mini world of discovery as you come across various shops and boutiques occasionally encountering local cafes and tapas bars. Down in front of the town, for the historians among you are two points of interest the Paleochristian Basilica Church and the third century remains of the Roman Baths.
One of the highlights is the large walkway that runs down to and along the beach which is perfect for an evening stroll. Once on the front, there are many restaurants and bars, where you can have a quiet meal overlooking the water. The speciality is the fish and the restaurants along here are not only excellent but a lot cheaper than the more upmarket, tourist areas of Marbella. There is also the Bora Bora Beach Club that is one of the best on the coast, providing loungers, a bar and all sorts of water sports.
