Seven Trips in Seven Days or shorter:
If you only have 3 days in Chiclana, these are just the places you must see first and it's as if you have the whole town in a nutshell.
Known as the Seven Places of Magic, it is actually a route with seven stops to the most historical and beautiful places of the town.
