The Coast of Light – the name itself sounds like a promise. Indeed, the Costa de la Luz owes its name to the extraordinary light created by the vastness of the Atlantic and the clear weather conditions. Golden dune landscapes and endless beaches characterise this stretch of coastline. The famous beach of La Barrosa is one of the most impressive stretches of coastline in Andalusia.

For those wishing to explore the region at a leisurely pace, the 5-star Royal Hideaway Sancti Petri is the ideal base. The resort is situated directly on one of the most beautiful stretches of beach on the Costa de la Luz and combines superior comfort with Andalusian architecture. Nestled within a lush garden landscape of palm trees, water features and subtropical vegetation, the resort feels like a modern interpretation of the Moorish gardens that still characterise Andalusia today.
