The Best Beaches in Cadiz

Cadiz is a paradise for sunshine lovers and beach goers. Compared to the other places on the nearby Costa del Sol, the beaches in and around Cadiz are mostly wild, with dunes and soft sand. They are popular with water sport lovers and a great place to learn how to surf, especially during winter when the waves are perfect for beginners.

In my guide on the best beaches in Cadiz I highlighted both the urban cities in the city as well as remote, wild area where you may be the only visitors. I completed the guide with insider tips on where to find the best amenities, facilities, food and drinks. Grab your sunscreen, beach towel and surf board, and get ready to discover the coastline of Cadiz and Costa Ballena.
