Beaches of Bolonia, Costa de la Luz
Andalusia

Bolonia is a beach that has very little construction done, but a ruin shows that the romans already liked this place.

Its large unspoilt beach is almost 4000m in length and has golden sand. It is a windy beach with moderate waves and crystal clear blue water. The beach is relatively busy with only two small towns nearby, el Lentiscal and Bolonia.

A beautiful sand dune that stands over 30m in height and declared a natural monument by the environmental council is on the other side of the beach.

Surrounded by pine trees, sand dunes and other vegetation it is considered to be one of the best beaches on the coast of Cadiz. Its facilities include secure parking, seasonal beach bars, restaurants, police patrols and signposts, Red Cross stations, toilets, showers, changing rooms, rubbish bins and hammocks. The nudist section is at the most southern part of the beach which is to the left hand side when looking out to the sea.

The archaeological roman site of Baelo Claudia is nearby. In 1917 archaeologists unearthed the ruins of a prosperous city in the area of Bolonia.

Roman remainders show that this beach was already apreciated thousends of years ago...It was built according to the classical rule of Rome and the style of the city conformed to a perfect urban plan. These ruins in Cadiz are the best known example of a well preserved Roman city.
