Los Guájares

Los Guájares is comprised of three small villages: Guájar Faragüit, Guájar Fondón and Guájar Alto. The area is located in a small, beautiful subtropical valley, formed by the River Loba. Its name comes from the Arabic word for abrupt, steep and difficult to access, describing the mountain below where the villages are situated.

Gualchos-Castell del Ferro

Gualchos is made up of two areas, Gualchos and Castell de Ferro, and is especially interesting for its natural environment; the main attractions being its beaches and cliffs.

Ronda's Feria Goyesca

Ronda is an ancient mountain town of scenic vistas, omantic plazas, and historic treasures. Once a year, Ronda also sees a return to tradition with its annual Feria Goyesca. A fairly recent festival, at least in Andalucian terms, it has become an event that has captured the imagination of Spain with its traditional dress, important bullfights and its ageless glamour.

Parks and Gardens

Some of Spain’s loveliest natural parks are located near Vejer de la Frontera. In fact, the La Breña Natural Park and the Barbate Wetlands (las Marismas de Barbate) are partially located within Vejer’s municipal limits.

Vejer de la Frontera Beaches

Just nine kilometres from Vejer de la Frontera the Playa del Palmar beach stretches out across the Cádiz coast inviting visits from locals and tourists alike. Nearby Capes of Trafalgar and Roches protect the coast.

Golf Courses

Property

Vejer de la Frontera is perched on a hilltop with panoramic views of the Cádiz countryside and coast. If you’re looking for properties in the Vejer area, expect to mainly find flats, townhouses and smaller houses within the village limits.

Things to See in Puerto Banus

Puerto Banús marina is without doubt the main sight of this town. With space for over 900 boats, this is where the rich and famous, including the King of Saudi Arabia, moor their impressive yachts. Many of these boats don't leave the marina and are simply used as 'holiday homes'. Along the marina you will also see plenty of luxury sports cars being driven, or simply paraded, by their owners alongside the numerous designer boutiques.

Rio Tinto Mines

Arising out of the midst of the surrounding greenery, the giant opencast mines of Rio Tinto create a surreal, almost lunar landscape. The removal of layer upon layer of soil and rock, in the search for iron ore, copper, silver and a host of other mineral ores, has tinted this part of the world in hues of dusty pink, brown, yellow, red and grey.

Puerto Real

Much of the municipality forms part of the Natural Park of the Bay of Cadiz. This environmentally protected region is an ornithologist’s delight, being a permanent home to a wide variety of birds including grey herons, cormorants, plovers and ospreys, and the temporary habitat of many more.

Necropolis Prehistorica de Corominas

Inside five small dolmens (standing stones) can be viewed. They are original and date from about 3,000 BC. Also on display are a number of pottery vessels, stone tools, arrowheads, axes, personal ornaments, necklace beads made of semi-precious stones and perforated seashells. The skulls and skeletons and other bones on display are reproductions as the originals are preserved.
