History
editFounded in 2014 as a replacement to dissolved Unión Estepona CF, the club initially created a youth setup named Club Deportivo Estepona Fútbol Base, later starting a senior side named Club Deportivo Estepona Fútbol Senior for the 2014–15 campaign.[1] After two consecutive promotions in their first two campaigns, the club spent four seasons in the División de Honor before achieving promotion to Tercera División in May 2020.[2]
Estepona suffered an immediate relegation back to División de Honor (now the sixth tier after the creation of a new third tier), but won their group in the 2021–22 season and returned to Tercera on 30 May 2022.[3] On 20 August, the club achieved administrative promotion to Segunda Federación after buying the place of dissolved Extremadura UD.[4]
After losing in the 2025 Segunda Federación play-off final against Cacereño in 2024-25, the 2025-26 season started terribly with the team only winning 2 of their first 17 games during the first half of the season.[5] However a huge turnaround in the second half of the season saw Estepona finish 13th in the relegation playoff place, where they beat Real Madrid C 5-3 on aggeragate to remain in the Segunda Federación.[6]
