The best areas to rent a home on the Costa de la LuzThere are many interesting areas to rent a home on the Costa de la Luz for a weekend getaway. It all depends on the type of holiday you want to enjoy.
To practice water sportsIf water sports are your thing, it's best to book a holiday home at Tarifa, which also has many natural and monumental attractions in the area
For families with childrenIf you are travelling with your family and you want to relax, our recommendation is that you rent a chalet in Chipiona, one of the most charming destinations in the region. Located at the mouth of the Guadalquivir and with spectacular sunsets. Conil is also a good destination for families, as it is a charming white village where you can breathe tranquillity and nature in every corner.

However, El Puerto de Santa Maria is also an excellent destination to visit monuments and has a privileged location for excursions to other localities in the area.
For those who want to have funIf you are looking for a charming destination, choose Rota, synonymous with relaxation, leisure and fun.
Types of travellers and activities
The rentals close to the beach on the Costa de la Luz give the opportunity to experience to the full some sports that can hardly be enjoyed elsewhere. The weather conditions in the area make the beaches of towns such as Tarifa the destination of choice for many surfers or windsurfers, as the wind of the Strait of Gibraltar creates ideal conditions for the practice of both sports. In addition, diving is an activity that has become a major protagonist in areas such as the Bay of Cadiz and other nearby areas thanks to the richness of a unique seabed.
The Costa de la Luz for golf fansThe Costa de la Luz has also dared to seduce golf lovers with a good number of first class courses including Club Campano, Costa Ballena Ocean Club and Club de Isla Canela. These courses have certifications to be used by all types of players, so they have the ideal environment to start in this sport or to improve skills in a quiet and beautiful area.
The Costa de la Luz for those looking for unique beachesThe Costa de la Luz has quite unique beaches where the sand dunes and vegetation of the area create environments difficult to find anywhere else. The unspoilt beaches of Bologna, the Lances beach in Tarifa, the beautiful Caleta of Cadiz or the beach of the Germans in Zahara de los Atunes are places that should be visited for their natural charm. Beaches that, besides being ideal for bathing, are also ideal for the practice of a wide variety of nautical activities, such as underwater fishing. But the region also has a good number of hidden coves much less frequented and that will allow you to enjoy the sun and the sea surrounded by virgin natural places, far from urbanism. Which makes them ideal for those who want to disconnect completely. Some of the best are Roche, Aceite, Tito Juan, Varadero and Frailecillo.

Top 5 Recommendations on the Costa de la Luz
The province of Cadiz hides an unusual place: Setenil de las Bodegas. This village, which is part of the "Ruta de los Pueblos Blancos" (Route of the White Villages), has taken advantage of the cliffs and rocky outcrops to create its buildings, so its urban landscape is worth a visit that will not disappoint anyone. Also, if you have time, don't forget to visit other charming villages such as Arcos de la Frontera, El Bosque or Bornos, surrounded by the spectacular landscapes of the Sierra de Grazalema.
2. Visit the Cathedral of the Holy CrossThe cathedral of the city of Cadiz is one of those buildings that cannot be easily forgotten. Its beautiful and rich interior joins a completely white exterior topped by a golden dome, something that makes this cathedral a unique temple that can be seen from the beach itself.
3. Disconnect everything in the most hidden covesFar away from agglomerations and conventional tourist scenarios are the coves of the Costa de la Luz. Places such as the Melchor cove, the Dorada cove or the Oil cove are well worth a visit to discover unspoilt corners full of charm. It is true that access is not usually easy and that most of the time it is necessary to walk for a while, but you can be clear that the effort is worth it to be able to enjoy beaches of such beauty in an environment of complete calm.
4. Travels to the past visiting its sitesNumerous cultures have passed through the Costa de la Luz, leaving remains that can be visited comfortably. The most important are the sites of Baelo Claudia, a Roman settlement of great importance in the past. The visit is completely free except for foreigners, who must pay the ticket to enter.
5. Try their exquisite fish and seafood dishesThe Costa de la Luz has an impressive gastronomic wealth. The sea breeze makes enjoying your freshly caught fish and seafood dishes an experience for all the senses. Don't miss the opportunity to try the sole, the red mullet, the sea bass, the tuna, the mackerel, the razors, the fine clams, the chirlas, the coquinas and, of course, the very famous Huelva prawns. The fried fish deserves a special mention, where the pointillitas, chocos and boquerones stand out.
