About Zahora

An hour from Jerez in the Andalucían region of Cádiz, Zahora has developed a fantastic reputation for great surfing and sailing. Small and laid-back, this sun-drenched coastal town is surrounded by beautiful beaches, making it an ideal choice for sun seekers and water sports enthusiasts. Friendly and relaxed, our pick of the best places to stay in Zahora reflects the town’s spirit, and is a welcoming base for couples, friends and families.

The Playa de Zahora is undoubtedly the area’s biggest attraction. A long stretch of golden sand, it’s brilliant for sandcastle-building, sunbathing and Atlantic Ocean swims. This is also a top spot for fun-filled days of sailing, surfing and wind surfing. The area around the lighthouse at Cape Trafalgar is lovely for long walks, and there are horse riding, hiking and mountain biking opportunities aplenty along the coast. Don’t miss the chance to venture east to the striking Los Caños de Meca or Playa de la Hierbabuena — both are gorgeous.

Small and picturesque, this can become a very busy summer destination; consider travelling in late spring or early autumn for a more tranquil experience. Expect the rooms at the best places to stay in Zahora to fill up fast!
