Chiclana de la Frontera is a beautiful Andalucian town situated in the Province of Cadiz in Southern Spain. Set back some 5-miles from the coast it offers wonderful views of the countryside and is an increasingly popular location in which to own Spanish property, whether as a holiday home or as an income property.
The climate in Chiclana de la Frontera is a revelation. It receives over 315 days of sunshine each year and is warm all year round. Sea breezes from the Atlantic coastline moderate the temperature during the summer, making it pleasantly warm instead of stiflingly hot.
Chiclana de la Frontera has all the charm of an historical town. It is packed full of exquisite 16th century - 18th century architecture, and Chiclana de la Frontera property in the old part of the town is largely of a Renaissance style. Among the most impressive monuments to Chiclana's past is the 18th century Santa Ana Hermitage and the San Juan Bautista church.
A short distance from Chiclana is the tiny island of Sancti-Petri, which is famous for its links with Greek mythology as well as its ruined lighthouse. The natural park around the Bay of Cadiz is close by too, while the 8km sandy beach of La Barrosa is only minutes away.
Chiclana de la Frontera has developed into a prestigious area in which to buy Spanish property in recent times. Luxury villas, chalets and small Chiclana de la Frontera property developments have attracted the attention of many foreign buyers. In the surrounding area too are plots of land on which that dream villa in Spain could be built.
