 Information on the Tourist information centre

1. Overview

The Marbella Tourist Information Centre in Plaza de los Naranjos is one of the town's official municipal tourist information offices and is particularly convenient for visitors exploring the Old Town.

The tourist information offices provide visitors with information about places to visit, accommodation, entertainment, leisure activities and things to do around Marbella. 

The Plaza de los Naranjos office is especially useful because of its location in the centre of the historic quarter. You can call in for information and then continue exploring the surrounding streets, churches, squares and historic buildings.

Marbella also has other official tourist information offices, including the main office near the Paseo Marítimo, Puerto Banús and San Pedro Alcántara.

2. Location & Address

The tourist information centre is located in Plaza de los Naranjos, in the heart of Marbella Old Town.

Address:
Plaza de los Naranjos, s/n
29601 Marbella, Málaga, Spain 

It is approximately:

• 2 minutes' walk from Marbella Old Town
• 5 minutes' walk from the Church of Our Lady of the Incarnation
• 5 minutes' walk from Alameda Park

The central location makes it particularly convenient when exploring the Old Town.

3. Opening Times

The Plaza de los Naranjos Tourist Information Centre currently operates:

Monday to Friday:
9:00am – 2:00pm

Weekends and public holidays:
Closed 

Opening hours can change, so it is worth checking before making a special journey.

If you need tourist information outside these hours, Marbella has other official tourist information offices, including the main office near the Paseo Marítimo. 

4. What You'll Find at the Tourist Information Centre

The office can provide information about:

• Marbella's main attractions
• Marbella Old Town
• museums and historic buildings
• beaches and the promenade
• restaurants and leisure activities

It is particularly useful if you want to find out what is happening during your visit, as events and activities can change throughout the year.

5. How to Get There

By car:
Driving directly into the Old Town is not recommended because of the narrow streets and pedestrianised areas. There are several car parks around the edges of the historic centre.

By bus:
Local buses serve central Marbella, with stops around the town centre within walking distance of Plaza de los Naranjos.

On foot:
The tourist information centre is extremely easy to reach when exploring Marbella Old Town.

From Alameda Park, walk north towards the Old Town. From Avenida del Mar, continue north through the historic streets towards Plaza de los Naranjos.

6. Parking

There is no convenient parking directly outside the tourist information centre because it is located within the historic centre.

There are, however, several parking options around the Old Town.

Parque de la Represa is one useful option, with plenty of parking around the park, including free parking, and it is within walking distance of the Old Town.

There are also underground car parks closer to Avenida del Mar and the seafront.

Have a look at our Marbella parking guide below for the different parking options, including free parking and the best places to park when visiting Marbella Old Town.

7. Tips for Visiting

• Pick up a map if you are planning to explore the Old Town on foot.
• Ask about current events and activities taking place during your visit.
• Use the office as a starting point for exploring Marbella's historic centre.
• Check the opening hours before visiting, particularly if you're visiting at the weekend.
• Plaza de los Naranjos itself is well worth spending some time in.
• From the tourist information centre, explore the surrounding narrow streets rather than simply following the main tourist route.
• If you're looking for trips, tours or activities, ask about what is currently available around Marbella.
• Combine your visit with the Church of Our Lady of the Incarnation and Marbella Old Town.

8. Nearby Attractions

• Plaza de los Naranjos
• Marbella Old Town

• Ermita de Santiago

9. Overall Experience

The Tourist Information Centre in Plaza de los Naranjos is a useful stop rather than an attraction in its own right. Its real advantage is where it is — right in the middle of Marbella's Old Town and surrounded by many of the places visitors want to see.

If you're already walking around the Old Town, it is worth calling in for a map or to find out about current events and activities. It can also be particularly useful for visitors who want information about attractions beyond the immediate tourist centre. 

Our tip: If you're visiting Marbella Old Town for the first time, call in at the tourist information centre before you start exploring. Pick up a map, find out what is happening during your stay and then use Plaza de los Naranjos as the starting point for discovering the Old Town's narrow streets and historic attractions.
