Nova Marbella is the more user friendly option in relation to its sister beach, Marbella. A family friendly beach, it's about a 15 minute walk from the main beaches, cleaner, less crowded and with a slightly wider coast line. This is a great place for beach side picnics or a day out with a group of family or friends. There are plenty of kids running around with more locals than tourists. And if anyone gets the burning desire to 'take it off' they can hop over to Marbella and blend right in with the rest of the nudists.
