What to do in Puerto Banús?
We love Puert Banús, even though Puerto Banús sometimes has a wrong name. We think this is partly due to the many Lamborghinis, huge yachts, Rolex and champagne bottles that are flying around your ears around Puerto Banús.

Wat te doen in Puerto Banús?
Wij houden van Puerto Banús, ook al heeft Puerto Banús soms een verkeerde naam. Wij denken dat dit deels komt door de vele Lamborghini's, enorme jachten, Rolexen en champagneflessen die u in Puerto Banús om de oren vliegen.
