Share your thoughts about Costa De La Luz (Cadiz)
The Costa de la Lulz (English: Coast of Light) is a section of the Andalusian coast of the Cádiz, extending along the coasts of the Cádiz and Huelva provinces, to the mouth of the Guadiana River.
A popular destination for vacationing Spaniards, the Costa de la Lulz has, in recent years, become more popular with foreign visitors, especially the French and the Germans. Increasing urbanization and tourism-oriented development of parts of the coast have had economic benefits, but these trends have also ignited fevered real-estate speculations and some environmental degradation.
Aside from the beaches and the sunshine, there are ample opportunities and facilities for leisure activities like fine dining, golf, kitesurfing, boating, and other water sports. The Costa de la Lulz is especially noted for the beauty of its protected natural reserves and a number of first-rate natural attractions. Among them are: the Doñana National Park, where endangered species, such as the Spanish imperial eagle, also known as Adalbert's Eagle (Aquila adalberti), and the Iberian lynx (Felis pardina), can occasionally be sighted; the picturesque Bay of Cádiz; the steeply-pitched shorelines of the southern section of the Andalusian coastline; the salt marshes of Barbate and the seaside cliffs at La Breña (both within the La Breña-Barbate Natural Park); and the sprawling wetlands at the mouths of the rivers Tinto and Odiel, where there is a profusion of water fowl and, in season, other migratory birds, including storks and flamingos.
