Huelva Information
The Coast of Huelva
Huelva offers immense beaches scattered with shells and with
nothing but water, dunes and pines froves in sight. However,
there are also places on the coast, with a lively atmosphere
which cater for the young. Quality tourism is represented
by an abundance of godd hotels and golf courses. Punta Umbría,
enjoys a mild, slightly humid microclimate and has long beaches
fringed with pine trees or junipers. In the direction of Cartaya
the traveller passes through Laguna del Portil, El Rompido
and Ría del Piedras. This is a quiet stretch of coast
with family beaches and the opportunity to practise all manner
of water sports. Further still, nearing Portugal now, are
Lepe, Isla Cristina and Ayamonte. Lepe is as acclaimed for
its strawberries as Isla Cristina is for its fishing. Ayamonte
is reflected in the River Guadiana, which separated ir from
Portugal in the past, but which now joins the two. It is the
biggest town on the coastline and near to paradisiacal Isla
Canela.
To the east of Huelva, the coastline consists of totally unspoitl
nature. Mazagón has a magnificient marina and, clean,
golden beaches. Then comes the popular resort of Matalascañas
and the coastline of Doñana Park. Inland is El Condado,a
district of good winer, villages and resplendent urban design,
such as Bollullos, Almonte and La Palma, and the pilgrimage
festival which attracts the largest crowds in Spain, El Rocío,
in the now universal marshland village. On the outskirts of
El Condado is a completely walled town called Niebla, the
best-preserved Almohade site in Spain.
