Nestled along the banks of the Río Guadalete in the bay of Cádiz, El Puerto de Santa María (known as “the City of a Hundred Palaces”) boasts a rich history, cultural heritage, and beautiful natural surroundings.
This charming coastal town is famous for its wineries, historic monuments, and golden beaches, drawing visitors eager to explore both its ancient past and modern-day delights. With a Mediterranean climate and an average temperature of 20°C, it’s a year-round destination for history buffs, foodies, and sun-seekers alike.
I’ve been living in this lovely area of Western Andalucia for the last 20 years or so and dedicate most of my time to the running of English language tourist information websites for the towns of Cádiz, Ronda, Grazalema, the famous or infamous Caminito del Rey, and also Wildside Holidays, which promotes sustainable and eco-friendly businesses running wildlife and walking holidays in Spain. My articles contain affiliate links that will help you reserve a hotel, bus, train or activity in the area. You don’t pay more, but by using them you do support this website. Thankyou!
