Goodbye to Matalascañas: Huelva's beautiful, crystal-clear beaches are giving it a run for its money.
Spain has more than 8,000 kilometers of coastline , with more than 3,550 beaches. Some of them are among the most highly rated in the world, but if you're talking about spectacular sandy beaches, you definitely have to travel to the province of Huelva . In the southwestern part of the Iberian Peninsula, you can visit some of the most impressive coastal enclaves that attract thousands of tourists every summer.
Most of Huelva's beaches are among the best in all of Spain, and in this part of Andalusia, you can relax in some spectacular paradises like Matalascañas. The sandy area of this town is one of the busiest during the summer season, as it is one of the major tourist centers in southern Spain, but there are other equally fascinating alternatives that are also perfect for enjoying a few moments of tranquility.
Cuesta Maneli BeachLike Doñana Beach, the longest in all of Spain, Cuesta Maneli Beach is located within the natural park itself. Located between Matalascañas and Mazagón, this idyllic stretch of sand is also ideal for enjoying stunning views, enhanced by the Asperillo Cliff Natural Monument, as well as the fine, golden sand that forms this sprawling enclave on the shores of the Atlantic.
This extraordinary beach is undoubtedly one of the best in the entire province of Huelva, making it a great option for a tranquil summer vacation . This earthly paradise, surrounded by breathtaking natural surroundings, is on par with Matalascañas.
El Rompido BeachIn contrast to the somewhat overcrowded tourism found in Matalascañas during the summer months, El Rompido exudes absolute peace. This small, seaside town boasts a sublime natural setting, the Piedras River Marshes and Flecha del Rompido Natural Park. Its beautiful beach looks like something out of a painting.
Located next to the Piedras River estuary, this incredible sandy beach is characterized by its small fishing port on one side, so it's common to see boats sailing in the distance. Furthermore, its small size compared to the more well-known beaches in Huelva makes this spot even more special.
Mazagón BeachAnother of the most famous sandy beaches in all of Andalusia is, without a doubt, Mazagón Beach, known for the extraordinary dunes that surround it. Located in the town of the same name and close to beautiful towns like Palos de la Frontera, it's perfect for visiting with children due to its calm waters.
Both the marina and some very unusual geological formations add even more charm to this magnificent beach. It also has a fascinating Parador , perfect for relaxing for a few days in a privileged setting without having to endure large crowds.
