Why go to Costa de la Luz

Get close to nature in Spain's peaceful coastal region of Costa de la Luz. Dotted with fishing villages, glorious beaches and natural reserves, the area stretches from the border with Portugal's Algarve in the west to the rowdy Costa del Sol in the east.

Holidays in Costa de la Luz offer a completely new perspective on the Spanish coast, far away from the bars and clubs of the noisier Costas...

In this part of Spain, whose name translates as the “Coast of Light”, holidays are about relaxation, golf, fun on the water and seeing the country's unspoilt, natural beauty. You can visit Donana National Park, shop in the boutiques of Cadiz, spy birds in the wetlands or have a go at windsurfing in Tarifa. And if that sounds too energetic, find your own private piece of beach and settle into the warm, golden sands before taking a dip in the sea.

Costa de la Luz holidays come highly recommended by those in the know: while many Brits have yet to mine the seam of holiday heaven here, the region is rightly popular with Spanish holidaymakers. They flock to Costa de la Luz resorts such as Barbate, family-favourite Chipiona, Conil de la Frontera, Isla Canela and Islantilla.

There are lots of flights from the UK, with four nearby airports delivering holidaymakers into the Costa de la Luz. Just remember to check the varying resort transfer times from the airports Jerez de la Frontera, Seville, Gibraltar, and Malaga before booking. Accommodation in the region is also in plentiful supply, ranging from spa breaks and golfing holidays in the lush interior, to low-rise hotels and apartments by the beach – there are no skyscraper hotels in this part of Spain.

Car hire on the Costa de la Luz is advisable, not only because there is so much to see and do, but also because a hired vehicle will save you money on transfers to and from the nearby airports.

The unspoilt Costa de la Luz is just waiting for you to discover it. Book your break now using the price-comparison tool on TravelSupermarket.
