Cadiz is the oldest city in the western world. According to legend, it was founded by Hercules. The surrounding coastline of the Costa de la Luz in Andalusia, Spain stretches north and south for 200km. The beaches here are excellent, as are most beaches on the Costa de la Luz; miles and miles of fine white sands and crystal clear waters.
The city itself is renowned for its sheer elegance and atmosphere. Cadiz is probably most famous for its Manzanilla wine and also for its prawns. Then there’s the summer horse races on the beach and don’t forget, the Cadiz carnival, said to be third largest carnival celebration in the world!
Thankfully, most of Cadiz Province has escaped the developers and therefore still retains its quiet and natural charm. The Costa de la Luz is probably the last untouched coastline in Andalusia and Spain; it’s certainly the least developed. The Cadiz coastline has one of the highest levels of rainfall in the whole of Spain and is a lot green than its neighbouring Costa de Sol.
There are hundreds of things to do and places to see here. It’s a small city but has all the conveniences of modern city; shops, hotels, bars, restaurants, nightclubs and a wide variety of accommodation.
The city’s main attraction, La Torre Tavira, is the most fascinating watchtower in Cadiz. Located in the centre of the old town, just a few minutes from the coast, it’s the highest lookout point in the city. You can see the entire old town from here, in every possible direction. Inside there are some superb exhibition halls that you can visit as you walk up to the top.
Although it’s a port town, Cadiz has a very relaxed, secure feeling. The people are incredibly friendly too. |
