Hilltop Vejer de la Frontera is unique amongst the historic pueblos blancos of Andalucía in its proximity to miles and miles of unspoilt coastline. Highlights of the Costa de la Luz include the dune-backed sands of local El Palmar, cliff-top walks through the umbrella pines above Caños de Meca, the kite-surfing capital of Tarifa, and horse-riding through the surf below the Cape of Trafalgar.


The old-town of Vejer is a labyrinth of narrow cobbled streets between white-washed houses that are redolent of its Moorish past. Surrounded by natural parks and overlooking the hills of the Alcornocales, Vejer makes an ideal base to explore the beautiful and historic province of Cádiz, with Cádiz city, Jerez and Seville all easy day-trips. On clear days Morocco appears tantalisingly close across the Straits of Gibraltar.
