Beach overall scores
Zahora Beach (Cádiz) region (Costa de la Luz sub-region) is located outside the Vejer de la Frontera settlement, which may cause some difficulties for travelers who stay far from the coast. However, the remoteness from the village is not always a bad thing. Lovers of quiet rest know, the farther the beach, the fewer crowds.
The beach stretches on the sunny coast and the easiest way to get to the beach is by car or bike. If you don't have this option, then the second best solution is to use the taxi, which can drive you directly to the beach. The only problem, if your stay is far away it can be quite expensive. There is also a possibility of use of public transport, but in this case you need to check the correct route to the Zahora Beach with the locals. Take into account that the bus stop is usually in some distance., but accessing the beach requires traversing some distance on foot. While driving or cycling are the most convenient options for reaching the start point of trail, these methods may not be feasible for everyone. Alternatively, a taxi can be used to drive directly to the location. Public transportation is another option, but it's important to confirm the correct route with locals beforehand as the bus stop may be located at some distance.
User reviews
"The beach has a lot to offer, but the sea is not so great. The sand is thin and comfortable to lounge on, but the sea is full of rocks. It's a bit of a trek from the parking lot, about a kilometer, to find an area with fewer rocks, but even then you'll find yourself surrounded by people and their pets."

"This location is the perfect for a break from the hectic world. The atmosphere is calming and peaceful. Visitors can take a horseback ride to enjoy the stunning sights. It's a great way to unwind and escape the everyday."
