Costa de la Luz Road Trip: From Cádiz to La Doñana & beyond to Portugal



Road trip number two of 2019. Join us for as we holiday across Spain’s Costa de la Luz.

First stop, Cádiz, one of my favourite Spanish cities. I describe the faded grandeur of this once-powerful city, soak up the atmosphere of its squares and streets and contemplate the city’s history and geography.

Then on to Conil, a bustling resort with a beautiful but windy beach popular with young Spaniards. From there we head to Vejer de la Frontera, named as one of Spain’s most beautiful towns. Then we beach hop between Zahora and Barbate (A favourite haunt of General Franco).

Next stop El Puerto de Santa María to meet friends eat sea food and admire El Puerto Sherry, followed by a long drive via Sevilla heading west to the Doñana National Park and our base, El Rocío, famous for its horses, brotherhoods and annual pilgrimage. Last stop, a day trip to Portugal and Faro. Phew! Vaya viaje!
