Costa de la Luz 'a top spot for property investment'

The Costa de la Luz on Spain's Atlantic coast has been highlighted by one property expert as a great location in which to make a real estate investment.

Nick Stuart, managing director of Spanish Hot Properties, described the region as "the Caribbean of the Spanish property market".

He explained that this stretch of coastline offers "a totally different lifestyle for property owners, especially for those who want to get back to real Spain".

Another reason that investors may consider purchasing real estate on the Costa de la Luz is the lower prices available, particularly when compared to areas like the Costa del Sol.

The main city in this region of the country is Cadiz, while there are numerous small towns and villages dotted along the coast. It stretches all the way from the mouth of the Guadiana River to the Strait of Gibraltar.

Among the attractions to be found on the Costa de la Luz are its numerous beaches, historical monuments - such as Cadiz cathedral and Jerez de la Frontera Fortress - and the Isla Cristina marine resort.
