On this unforgettable holiday to Spain, we’ll discover Costa de la Luz, a sunny, vibrant region of Andalucía.

We’ll learn more about the life of Christopher Columbus before he set off on his first voyage to the New World at the Muelle de las Carabelas. On this trip, we’ll also enjoy plenty of leisure time to relax on the beach or visit other seaside towns, with recommendations and tips from our expert guide.
