Marbella continues to host a week-long schedule of events through until June 13th, with property in Spain providing the perfect base point from which to enjoy the festivities or to explore the city at any time of year.

The Andalusia tourism site suggests that the "most emotional moments" of the festival include the procession honouring San Bernabe, a religious procession leading to the Cruz de Humilladero and the placing of a pennant on the balcony of the town hall.

A further attraction that could prove entertaining to visitors is the "giants and big-heads" parade through the streets, which could add an eye-catching twist to the view out of property in Spain‘s popular tourist destination.

Marbella is in the municipality of Malaga, a common point of arrival for tourists flying into Spain and a transport hub for the southern coastline of the country.

The city itself has two main beaches – the Playa de la Bajadilla and Playa de Fontanilla.
