    If you want to get away from Spain's big-name resorts, consider a holiday to the Costa de la Luz. This part of the country is all about sleepy villages and beaches without the frills.

    Authentic Spain

    The Costa de la Luz couldn’t be more different from its Costa cousins. Facing the Atlantic on Andalucia's westerly stretch of coast, it's Spain without its make-up – a place where the scenery and traditional way of life hold sway over high rises and holiday crowds. TUI operate two different flights to the Costa de la Luz – one to Jerez and one to Faro – so you can pick and choose depending on what you’re after.

    Chiclana de la Frontera

    Fly into Jerez airport, and you’ll stay in the up-and-coming resort of Chiclana de la Frontera. The jewel in its crown is Barossa Beach, a 6-kilometre sweep of sand that’s been left to its own devices in parts. Even the more commercial section, complete with shops, restaurants and a promenade, is a world away from some of the bigger Spanish beach resorts. The city of Jerez itself, meanwhile, puts you within easy reach of Moorish buildings and flamenco bars.

    Isla Canela

    Fly into Faro airport, and you’ll stay in the resort of Isla Canela, close to the Portuguese border. The little island is connected to the mainland by a bridge, and its main highlights include a huge sandy beach and an 18-hole golf course. You’re also within easy reach of the Donana National Park here.

    Destinations in Costa De La Luz

    Top Destinations

    • Islantilla

      Holidays to Islantilla blend traditional Spanish culture and modern, seaside staples. Highlighs include a sandy Blue Flag beach and a top-drawer golf course.

    • Isla Canela

      With holidays to Isla Canela on the Costa de la Luz, you get uncluttered white sands, relaxed evenings and chic boutiques. And you can be in mainland Spain in just 15 minutes.

    • El Rompido

      Secluded beaches, traditional village, protected marshlands – El Rompido holidays serve up an authentic slice of southern Spain.

    • Zahara de los Atunes

      Lift the lid on Zahara de los Atunes holidays and discover sun, sand and seafood dinners.

    • Chiclana de la Frontera

      Holidays to Chiclana de la Frontera offer up the best of Andalusia, with traditional tapas, an award-winning beach, and Cadiz less than half-an-hour away.

    • 200-kilometre coast

      The Costa de la Luz lines up the beaches. There’s more than 200 kilometres of coastline in this part of Spain and it’s outfitted with long sandy stretches and quieter coves. This section of shoreline is also daubed with Blue Flag status. At least 30 of Costa de la Luz’s beaches have been awarded this coveted accolade.

    • The secret beach

      The ratio of sand to people is low on Los Enebrales Beach, an hour’s drive east from Isla Canela. You reach the sand via a wooden walkway surrounded by juniper trees and sand dunes. When you get there, the beach is completely unadorned. It’s just powdery biscuit-coloured sand and the sea.

    • Bargain Buys

      If you’re staying on Isla Canela, cross the bridge over the Guadiana River to the mainland on a Saturday. The fishing village of Ayamonte holds an open-air market right by the river, and it’s the best place to pick up local produce, crafts and jewellery. There’s also a weekly flea market in Seville on a Sunday. The stalls on Charco de la Pava carry everything from wooden masks to olive oil.

    • Mid-Range Buys

      El Corte Inglés is Spain's flagship department store – think Debenhams but slightly more upmarket. You'll find it in the town of Cadiz, and it's packed with shops including home favourites like Mango, Zara and Benetton. Fashion stores in Chiclana de la Frontera are a little less mainstream, but worth a browse. Head to Novo Center and Calle Fierro 1 to find pieces you won’t get back home.

    • Designer Buys

      If you’re serious about spending, head for the streets of Seville. You’ll find the best choice of goods along the Calle Sierpes avenue, where there are countless Spanish fashion boutiques and designer stores. There’s also a string of smart pavement cafés and patisseries for when you need a little break from retail therapy.

    • Laid-back evenings

      El Rompido, just along the coast from Isla Canela, is a good choice for a chilled-out evening. When the sun goes down, the locals head for the medley of cosy tapas bars down by the waterfront. And this sets the tone for the rest of the evening – think good food, lots of wine and local musicians strumming on guitars. It’s a similar scene in Isla Canela itself, plus the resort also boasts an 18-hole golf course, so you can get a round in before the sun goes down.

    • Lively evenings

      The after-sun scene in Chiclana de la Frontera is none too shabby. Calle La Gaviota, Calle San Antonio and Carretera de la Barrosa are the names to watch out for. The bars in these areas put on live music and happy hours, and stay open pretty late. For a real taste of Spanish nightlife, though, you’ll want to head into Seville.

    • Gazpacho

      If you fancy a change from tapas, order this time-honoured dish as a starter. A thick, creamy tomato-based soup that’s served chilled, it’s garnished with the likes of parsley, diced eggs and ham. On a hot day, you might find some restaurants serving it with ice-cubes.

    • Fabada

      If you’re really hungry, try this belly-warmer. It’s a rich bean stew made with white beans, meat and chorizo, and it’s sprinkled with saffron to give it extra flavour. Make like the locals and tuck in at lunchtime – their largest meal of the day – accompanied by crusty bread and a glass of red wine.

    • Rabo de toro

      If you like oxtail soup, you’ll enjoy this local classic. Rabo de toro is a popular dish that consists of the tail of a bull. The tail is braised with onions and tomatoes and, as a finishing touch, the chef will add a splash of the region-produced sherry.

    • Jabugo ham

      This dry, cured ham comes from the Spanish town of Jabugo, and it’s made from the acorn-eating pigs that roam the forest on the border of Portugal. It’s said that the diet and exercise of the pigs give the ham its sweet, nutty taste.

    • Sherry

      Sherry is the tipple of choice for Costa de la Luz locals. In fact, the stuff has been produced in the region since Phoenician times. Grapes are harvested at the start of September, and there’s even a festival to mark the occasion. Choose from dry and sweet varieties, and sip yours with a creamy dessert for the ultimate holiday indulgence.
