The Costa de la Luz / Cadiz Province region

Located inland, 20 km from Sanlucar, Jerez holds worldwide acclaim for sherry and brandy production. Jerez is the Spanish word for sherry.

Sun and Wind are the most important factors of Costa de la Luz.In winter temperature seldom fall below 10 C (50 F). easily reaching 20 c(68) on noon.Maximum temperature in summer seldom rise above moderate 30 c(86 F), while in the interior of Andalusia or at Costa del Sol, 40C(104F) easily can be reached. With that balanced climate the region of Cadiz counts with warm weather between spring and fall and a soft and moderate winter. With more than 3000 hours of sunshine the province of Cadiz is the sunniest region of Europe. The Atlantic ocean in the golf of Cadiz is not as cold as many believe. New Golf developments are emerging on its fringes surrounded by vineyards as far as the eye can see.

Tarifa is a an emerging hot spots of Cost de la Luz.

Sanlucar de Barrameda area

The town is situated at the mouth of the river Guadalquivir, which has functioned as a source of influence of many important cultures and civilisations which have left behind them their indelible mark on the area. The privileged situation of the town across the river from Donana National Park makes it an ideal starting point from which to visit the Reserve.

Although archaeological remains suggest in the area in the earliest if ages, it is not until the 13th century that the town was constructed , becoming in the 15th and 16th centuries on of the most important ports of the trade which connected the Atlantic with the Mediterranean.

The port served as a boarding point for Columbus on the Voyage of Discovery of America. This was the port's most glorious period, due in part to the patronage of the Dukes of Medina Sidonia, to whose Duchy it belonged. A silent witness of this former splendour is the legacy of monuments formed by convents, churches, fortresses,
and government buildings, of which the most note-worthy are the Castillo de Santiago(15th century), Ias Covachas(15th century).

In the popular beach known as the Bajo de guia horse races are held each year in summertime.

Sanlucar de Barrameda area
Situated at the northern tip of the sherry triangle, 8 km from Chipiona, the delightful small town of San Lucar de Barrameda is flanked by the Gudalquivir estuary. The speciality tipple here is the distinctive manzanilla wine, which acquires its dry, slightly salty tang from the seaside environment and the most poniente wind. The town is equally famed for its excellent seafood, for which manzanilla is (coincidentally !) the ideal accompaniment.

The town dates back to Roman times. Later the Moors built a defensive fort here which evolved into a major port under the catholics. Columbus set sail from Sanlucar in 1498 and, a few decades later, the Portuguese, Ferdinand Magallan set off to circumnavigate the globe from here, in search of a westerly route to the spice islands of indonesia. Unfortunately , he was killed by local Indians in the Philippines. Today, the town is divided into the older quarter, the Barrio Alto where most of the interesting sights can be seen and the newer Barrio Bajo, closer to the river. The San Lucar beaches are also magnificent and stretch several kilometres to the south-west, while the former port and fishing quarter, the Bajo de Guia is unsurprisingly where some of the best seafood restaurants can be found.

The heart of the old town is Plaza del Cabildo, a delightful, palm-fringed square lined with bars and restaurants. Just north is the Plaza de San Roque where the daily market is held. Nearby is the 15th century Iglesia de la Trinidad with its magnificent Mudejar ceiling.

San Lucar is also noted for its horse racing which dates back to 1845 and takes place along a 1,800 stretch of beach at the mouth of the Rio Guadalquivir during the month of August daily from 6.00 pm, on the 2nd and 4th week ends of the month(Thursday to Sunday)

Another important festival for the town is the Feria de la Manzarilla in early June which leads up to the Noches de Bajo de Guia flamenco season, classical and jazz festivals and the occational top rate concert.
