Playa de Zahora & Amarna Zahora

Zahora is a small, almost insignificant coastal settlement that has grown considerably in recent years due to the tourism boom in the area. The population of Zahora is approximately 480 inhabitants.

The beach stretches for about 3 kilometers, has golden sand and the end closest to the tombolo (Trafalgar) is undeveloped, featuring a large dune system with abundant vegetation. To the northeast, villas and beach bars form the most popular stretch of beach.

The beach can be divided according to this criterion into two sections, the first from the mouth of the San Ambrosio stream, a seasonal stream that acts as a boundary with the municipal area of ​​Vejer de la Frontera , to the beginning of the tombolo of the Trafalgar Lighthouse and a second section of beach free of constructions and dominated by the natural dynamics of the special sand structure that makes it up, with a large amount of vegetation and a developed dune system, up to the Mangueta beach.

Its southern end is practically deserted even in summer, making it an attractive place for strolling, getting lost among its dunes, or practicing nudism.

At the northern end you can find the restaurant Amarna Zahora. The roof looks like an upside-down boat and in season it is a popular location. However, the restaurant will be closed from the beginning of October, so no carajillo for me today 😉.Læs mere
