Overview
Located on the western coast of Andalusia in the province of Cádiz, the gorgeous Playa Mangueta is an unurbanized hidden gem. This one-kilometer long, 50-meter wide beach has soft golden sand and Atlantic Ocean views. Even during peak seasons Playa Mangueta is not very crowded, making it ideal for visitors looking to get away from busy beaches. There is a dirt parking lot by the beach, and it’s an easy walk from there.
Once you're on the beach, you'll notice there are no houses or buildings in sight to obstruct the natural beauty of Playa Mangueta. The lack of development here also means the beach has little to no amenities, so make sure to come prepared with food, water, and all your beach gear. The water here is calm and good for swimming. Most people come to Playa Mangueta to lay back and relax while enjoying the scenery, as it is quiet, unspoiled, and beautiful.
If you're hungry, the nearby town of Zahora offers many places to eat. La Bruma de Zahora is only a 10-minute walk south of the beach and serves classic Mediterranean cuisine with vegetarian-friendly options. For another option, drive 10 minutes into town to Restaurante la Tertulia, which offers a variety of unique tapas and a comforting atmosphere. Also located in town is La Traina Restaurante, which serves delicious Spanish food in a gorgeous outdoor garden.
If you're looking for places to stay, you'll find options to the north in El Palmar de Vejer and to the south in Zahora. Arohaz Hotel is located in Zahora and is only a 10-minute walk to the beach. This charming small hotel offers clean, comfortable rooms, a sun terrace, and a refined restaurant. For a fun and affordable option, stay at Nexo Surfhouse which is located in El Palmar de Vejer.
