TRAVEL GUIDES DIRECTORY: COSTA DE LA LUZ SPAIN PUNTA UMBRÍA

Travel Guides Directory: Costa de la Luz Spain Punta Umbría Punta Umbria is the biggest seaside town which enjoys quite a privileged location which is on a blessed piece of land that stretches between the mouth of the rivers Tinto and Odiel and the Atlantic Ocean . It is about 16 kilometers from the capital of the Province and has a fast growing population of 15,000 which grows bigger ever time it s the summer season mainly because of the size and quality of the beaches here as well as the tourist services. Punta Umbría is a place flocked by visitors from all over the world because everything here seems to be bathed in golden sunshine having its own unique special quality of light. Along with this, the town also boasts of more or less 12km of fine, golden sands in beaches with clear, clean waters of the Atlantic. It is considered by many as the most developed beach area especially because it is the one with the highest quality of services and facilities. The area is also as wide and spacious as those which come before or after the area. It gets a lot of visitors owing up to the growing commercial establishments in the area. Around here, there are many comfortable happy bars as well as restaurants and refreshment stands. In here you can enjoy a cool refreshing drink any time of the day. Services on offer here also include a lot of water sports like windsurfing and there are also plenty of different places for you to park your vehicles close to the shores.

The beach itself has been granted the Blue flag award by the European Union. One thing that distinguishes Punta Umbría from the other beaches around is the Ría that also forms a part of the estuary of the Tinto and Odiel rivers which flows down into the sea. As for beauty spots, you can take a walk through the los Enebrales natural park where you are allowed to enjoy the beautiful local scenery where much of nature s beauty can be seen still unspoiled here. Amidst the glorious nature here you can bask under the junipers, broom, pine trees and a rich diversity of fauna. There s also the El Portil lagoon that is formed by the blocking up of several streams because of the shifting dunes. This site here is the abode of one of the biggest colonies of chameleons in the vast expanse in the west coast of Huelva .

Punta Umbria is other than its great beach qualifications, a fairly large resort that has plenty of shops, bars and restaurants around a fishing port. The town mainly contains a bustling fishing port and within its immediate surroundings are beautiful natural scenic areas with the likes of the La Laguna de El Portil (El Portil lake), Los Enebrales (juniper tree groves), and the Marismas del Odiel (Odiel marshes). Both the busy fishing town of Isla Cristina as well as the city of Huelva are close by and coordinating with each other. As for the resorts, the newly developing Spanish resorts along the Costa de la Luz are only 25 kms away from the Portuguese border. There are miles of golden sandy beaches with a golf course together with the adjoining village of La Antilla which also offers a good selection of restaurants and bars.
