Location:

Casa Trafalgar is situated in the middle of the Costa de la Luz on the Atlantic side of Spain, running from Tarifa in the south up to the Guadiana River, which marks the border of Portugal. Better known as a vacation place for Spaniards, it has become increasingly popular amongst foreigners over recent years. As a result, the area now caters more towards tourists but still holds firmly onto its rich and vibrant Andalusian culture.

Being situated in Zahora, your nearest attraction (just seven hundred metres away) is the beach, Playa de Zahora. There you’ll find water sports available such as surfing and windsurfing, and there is also the option to go out into the Atlantic for whale and dolphin watching.

The region is rocky and mountainous, providing plenty of room for activities inland such as horse-riding, canyoning, trekking and mountain biking. You’ll also find several golf courses scattered all over the region.

Ten kilometres north is the nearest major town, Conil de la Frontera, one of the many white towns of Andalusia. Here you’ll find some more exceptional sandy beaches and some charming places to eat and relax. Further inland is the stunning hillside town of Vejer. It’s a wonderful place to take in the Arabic architecture and eat some mouth-watering Andalusian food.

The major tourist attractions of the wider region, besides the many white towns and villages, can be found in Cadiz, the main city of Costa de la Luz. There you’ll find the fascinating Torre Tavira, an eighteenth-century watchtower at the highest point in the city, which features Spain’s first-ever camera obscura. There is also the immense Catedral de Cadiz with its impressive gold dome and, for the foodies, the Mercado Central, famous for some of the freshest seafood in all Spain.

Perhaps Andalusia’s greatest attraction lies not far from Cadiz in the town of Jerez de la Frontera: The Royal Andalusian School of Equestrian Art. Home of the world-renowned “dancing horses”, this tremendous building houses one of the most spectacular displays of equestrian activity in the world. It’s well and truly a once in a lifetime experience.
