The Costa de la Luz is a picturesque beach region overlooking the Atlantic Ocean. Steeped in Andalusian culture, it contains some of the country’s most fascinating historic cities. Visit fortresses and museums for an insight into the complex and awe-inspiring past of this intriguing region. Note that this area is a little quieter and more secluded than the neighboring Costa del Sol, making it a favourite among Spanish holiday makers. The western part of the region comprises the Huelva province, with its namesake city and spectacular nature reserves. Stroll along the paths of the Doñana National Park to spot rare species, such as the Spanish imperial eagle and the Iberian lynx. The city of Cádiz is among the most popular parts of Spain’s southern coast due to its Moorish influence and stunning beaches. Wander through the historic district to see the Gran Teatro Falla and the eclectic Cádiz Cathedral on Cathedral Square. The city has several stretches of golden sand, such as Victoria Beach and La Caleta Beach, which is flanked by fortresses. Enjoy sunny, hot summers with trips to the various coves and inlets that make up the Costa de la Luz. At the southeastern tip of the region is the town of Tarifa, known for its excellent surfing spots. Sunbathe on Bolonia Beach and the Playa de los Lances. Learn about the Battle of Trafalgar at Cape Trafalgar and go to the salt marshes of Barbate. Wander through the small village of Bolonia, where you will find the Archaeological Ensemble of Baelo Claudia, the preserved ruins of a Roman city. This picturesque region is in the southwestern part of Spain, near the Portuguese border. Arrive at Gibraltar International Airport and head west to reach the coast. Get around the region by bus or train, which stop at Cádiz and Huelva. The Costa de la Luz is a vast area of sandy havens flanked by historic beacons of Moorish culture. ### Where to stay in Costa de la Luz ![Old Town Cádiz](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/553248633937781371/28d5b894-0ef1-432b-8a17-6fe047318868.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=350&h=192&q=medium) ### Old Town Cádiz 4.5/5(101 area reviews) Historical sites, seaside views and spas highlight some of the noteworthy features of Old Town Cádiz.
