Andalucia is the Spanish
Autonomous Community with the greatest
number of inhabitants and the second in
surface. Its varied landscapes, the
benignancy of its climate and the
friendly character of its population
have turned it into one of the most
attractive regions.
3000 hours of sun per year, many
kilometers of golden sand beaches and
those beautiful natural ports made it a
safe refuge already for Phoenician
navigators, thousands of years before
Christ.
The coast of Huelva and Cadiz
corresponds to the Atlantic Ocean and is
characterized by fine sand. The
Mediterranean coast, from the Strait of
Gibraltar to Almeria, on the other hand
offers smoother climate with less wind
and higher water temperatures.
Andalucia is crossed by Guadalquivir
river, the "father" of old civilizations
who have left along its borders an
impressive monumental track, as well as
the high mountain ranges of Sierra
Morena and Sistemas Beticos.
The offer for visitors is extremely
varied, from golden beaches to those
beautiful mountain ranges with their
highly interesting fauna, and the famous
"white villages" with their richdom in
folklore and artisany. There are great
possibilities for most different sports
as well, from skiing in the Sierra
Nevada to surfing at the coast of Cadiz,
where you will find ideal conditions as
nowhere else in Europe.
Andalucia is the "mother" of the Spanish
folklore which is probably best known
abroad: here you will live the magic of
Flamenco and bullfighting in their most
authentic style, and myths like Don Juan
and Carmen were born here. A land of
great traditions, which has understood
as well to assimilate the progress.
