Costa de la Luz
The Costa de la Luz, or the "Coast of Light", is a wonderful mix of wide open spaces (both green and golden), offering a quiet holiday consisting of golf, sandy beaches and long lunches of exquisite seafood, away from the regular tourist crowd. It extends along the Atlantic coastline of the western provinces of Spain in the autonomous region of Andalucía, Southern Spain, and is usually thought of in two sections: the coast along the province of Huelva, which is bordered by Portugal on its western side, and that of the province of Cadiz, which stretches from the Guadalquivir River to Tarifa and the Mediterranean Sea in the east.
The long beaches of the Costa de la Luz consist of fine, golden sands, and its waters are slightly cooler than those of the eastern coast. Owing to the strong winds coming from the Atlantic, the beaches along the Costa de la Luz are often characterized by a wild shore that has become popular with surfers and windsurfers, making the coast a virtual paradise for sports aficionados. As one of the latest regions to be developed for tourism in Spain, with no high-rise hotel developments as of yet, this area has successfully preserved its pristine environment and remains largely unspoiled. The trendy town of Tarifa is now becoming the place to be seen for cool celebs, with its attractive and relaxed shabby-chic ambience drawing a mixed, young crowd of sporty social animals.
The Costa de la Luz is easily accessible via the airports at Sevilla and Jerez, and is only a 90 minute drive from Malaga airport.
