Apartments in Ayamonte

Apartments in Ayamonte, near Isla Canela

Ayamonte, which is close to the mouth of the Guadiana river and the marshes of Isla Cristina, is the westernmost municipality of the Andalusian shoreline and one of the best destinations in which to spend your holidays. The location is divided into four parts that, together with the centre of Ayamonte, comprise Pozo del Camino, Punta del Moral and Isla Canela. The latter are touristic areas where you’ll find most accommodations in Ayamonte.

As is typical all along the Costa de la Luz, Ayamonte boasts kilometres of golden fine-sanded beaches with nary an incline in sight, crystal-clear waters, and a surprising environment composed of dunes and marshes. You can choose between the beach of Isla Canela and that of Punta del Moral. The former is a natural beach where you’ll have to cross 150 metres of sand to reach the sea (when the tide is low) and a quiet, mostly empty place. The latter is more crowded and has several hotels and holiday apartments right in front of the beach, as well as long promenades lined with parking lots and restaurants.

The water in both beaches is calm and the waves are few and far apart, making them ideal for children and practising water sports like kitesurfing and windsurfing. What’s more, the beaches of Ayamonte are known for their spectacular sunsets.

After a long day on the beach, spend the afternoons and evenings strolling along the streets and squares of Ayamonte. The natural charm of the Andalusian villages is heightened by the presence of the Guadiana river, which bestows a special beauty on Ayamonte. The evening is the perfect time for walking along the bed of this river that runs between Huelva and Portugal.

Ayamonte is also known for containing several interesting religious monuments, such as the Church of Our Lady of Sorrows, the church of El Salvador and the church of San Francisco. In the cultural field, other noteworthy buildings include the palace of the Marquis of Ayamonte and the Baluarte de las Angustias stronghold. It’s also worth dropping by the Parador lookout point to enjoy a drink and admire the incredible views of the Guadiana International Bridge.

If you want to explore some of Huelva’s other beaches, Islantilla, El Rompido, El Portil, Punta Umbría or Mazagón are all locations with excellent beaches and services for spending a day. But if you’re looking for natural beaches with beautiful landscapes, the beaches of Matalascañas and its surroundings – Cuesta Maneli, Rompeculos or Torre del Loro – are easily the most spectacular.

On the other hand, Huelva is a province with astonishing natural settings brimming with wildlife. In this respect, the Doñana national park is without a doubt its most important location. It is considered the largest ecological reserve in Europe, as it is home to hundreds of different species of both African and European birds.

But besides this place, La Flecha del Rompido and the marshes of Isla Cristina are two other notable natural spaces. The former is a village located in the heart of the marshes of the Piedras river, in the municipality of Cartaya, and the so-called Flecha (‘Arrow’), is an uninterrupted stretch of sand that skirts the coast starting at the mouth of the river. The easiest way to reach it is by boat and, once there, enjoy its surprising unspoilt beach and treks.

Lastly, if you have time, don’t miss visiting the capital of Huelva and the beautiful city of Palos de la Frontera, known as the cradle of the discovery of America.
