The spa town of Chipiona is situated on a small peninsular on the Costa de la Luz in Southern Spain. Only 20kms from Cadiz, it stands close to the mouth of the Guadalquivir River as it enters the Atlantic, and is a popular tourist resort with Spaniards and older generations of North Europeans. If you're looking for a quiet and idyllic seaside town in which to buy Spanish property in the sun, then Chipiona could be the place for you.
Chipiona is a melee of whitewashed buildings, narrow streets and historic monuments. Being a coastal resort it is flanked by four wonderful sandy beaches, all of which are quiet, except during July and August when many tourists visit the area. Large sections of the beach are backed by a boardwalk and a well- manicured promenade, all offering easy access to the fine golden sands. On the tip of the peninsula itself is one of the tallest lighthouses in Europe.
The climate in Chipiona is warm all year round. During the summer sea breezes off the Atlantic keep temperatures pleasant, while during the winter Chipiona is one of the mildest places in Spain. With the traditional towns of Jerez de la Frontera and Cadiz close by, and a wealth of activities from golf to hang-gliding available, Chipiona really does have everything for everyone!
Spanish property in Chipiona is very varied. Apartments, villas, townhouses, country properties and beachfront properties are all available in and around the town. The most desirable Chipiona property are generally those along the promenade or beachfront, where there are unobstructed views of the sea and the Bay of the Costa de la Luz. Compared to resorts on the neighbouring Costa del Sol, Chipiona property prices are very reasonable. You may also find plots of land on which you can build that dream villa in Spain. Recently, a 2660m2 plot with sea views was on the market for around €100,000 euros.
