How was the weather in the first week of December where you live? Here in Marbella, the sun was shining, the skies were a gorgeous clear blue and we could see all the way to the coast of Africa, the Spanish enclave of Ceuta and Gibraltar too. Shirtsleeves and even shorts were in evidence as many people, locals and visitors alike, enjoyed the re-energising warmth of the sun as they strolled along the beautiful promenade with their family and friends. With the temperature in the low 20s Centigrade, this was close-to-perfect outdoor living. Leisurely walking or more active skating & cycling, chatting and laughing with those who are close to them, dining and drinking, perusing the many local shops or just chilling on the beach! 

Marbella's wide promenade and its lovely sandy beach are a wonderful place to be at any time of the year. December however is particularly special as hopefully these photos will show!

Marbella beach and its beautiful promenade in December are a wonderful place to be any day of the week, but especially at the weekends when the locals join the visitors to stroll along the seafront to enjoy the spectacular views, the normally fantastic weather (it was 24C when these photos were taken!) and the fabulous bars and restaurants. One of our favorite places to go to is the "La Red" restaurant that is just below the promenade and on the beach. 
Open throughout most of the year, with evenings in the summer too, La Red, has a wide range of tasty dishes and drinks to tempt most palates, is great for families and couples and has great service too! 

Below are some photos of the very popular La Red Restaurant on the beach, next to the Marbella promenade. It is just a over a ten minute drive from our luxury apartments in El Presidente. 

A fabulous location to dine and relax!
