5 reasons to visit Vejer



1. Location                                                                                         

Vejer (the white town) is located in the province of Cadiz. What makes this place so unique and special is the beautiful view they have since they are located on top of a hill near the beach.

2. Architecture:

Vejer has conserved the Arab-Andalusian architecture for a long time. You can visit the medieval castle, the churches, and many other monuments that were constructed many centuries ago which are the reason why Vejer won the National Award of town beautification in 1978.

3. Gastronomy:

When talking about food, Vejer is an extravagant destination because you can enjoy a land and sea fusion. Having the beach so close is one of Vejer’s assets since they can offer fresh seafood and probably the best. Plus, restaurants have tried to mix the modern and the traditional plates to offer more variety and satisfy the demand of different generations.

4. Crafts:

Vejer is a common and frequent destination for many foreigners. They bring their arts and crafts and, together with Vejer’s crafts, provide an interesting and satisfying shopping experience to the tourists.

5. Activities:

Spending some quality time at the beach is not the only activity at Vejer. There are several aquatic sports that you can practice; surf is definitely one of them. You can ride bikes around the town and if you are an animal lover, you can ride a horse as well. Or, you can simply walk around and appreciate every corner of the town. Getting bored is not an option.

Vejer de la Frontera, elegido como uno de los pueblos más bonitos de España



Con un gran atractivo turístico gracias a su muralla medieval, Vejer de la Frontera es como una luz que se ilumina en medio de la montaña, incluso de día. Vestida por un conjunto de palmeras y casas blancas que conforman el municipio y adornada por su entramado de callejones laberínticos, cuestas, arcos de cal y calles estrechas cerca del mar. Con una panorámica espectacular encontramos el castillo en la parte más elevada, aunque su vida transcurre fervientemente en las plazas, como la de los ‘pescaítos’, denominada así por los peces de colores que se haya en sus fuentes.

Situado junto al Parque Natural de la Breña y Marismas de Barbate, así como el Parque Natural de Los Alcornocales, además de diversos lugares históricos y naturales, para poder realizar actividades tanto en ámbitos de playa como de sierra.
