Conil de la Frontera holidays

Conil de la Frontera

Holidays to Conil de la Frontera take you to a whitewashed town that nudges up to one of southern Spain’s best beaches.

A holiday have-it-all

Big, sandy beach? Check. Whitewashed old town? Check. Streets full of bars, restaurants and ice-cream parlours? Check. You might not have heard of Conil de la Frontera until now, but considering it ticks off so many holiday must-haves, this southern Spanish town has done pretty well to stay under the radar for so long. And thanks to its plot about 40 minutes’ drive south of Cadiz, it puts better-known spots like Seville, the Rock of Gibraltar and Los Alcornocales Natural Park within daytripping distance.

Waterside walks

If you’re like most of us, you’ll be spending a big chunk of your holiday at the beach. And you won’t have to wake up early to nab yourself a good spot on this one – it’s absolutely huge. Cross the wooden boardwalk over the Salado River to the left of Conil de la Frontera, and you’ll end up on a sandy path that spans all the way along the seafront to the next town. Things are pin-drop quiet around here, so it’s the ideal spot to fling down a towel and get stuck into your favourite book.

Al fresco feasting

The narrow lanes around Conil de la Frontera’s old town are sprinkled with restaurants, cafés and tapas bars, and most of them spill out onto the pavement, so you can catch some rays while you clink sangria glasses over a bite to eat. And if seafood’s your game, you’re in luck. The town’s tuna-fishing history means restaurant menus are full of the stuff – not to mention all the Spanish classics, like vegetable tortillas, paella and patatas bravas.
