Chipiona, Coastal municipality in Cádiz Province, Spain

The municipality spans 33 square kilometers along the Atlantic coast, featuring golden sand beaches and maintaining a steady temperature throughout the year.

The name originates from the Roman Consul Quintus Servilius Caepion, who ordered the construction of a lighthouse at the mouth of the Guadalquivir River.

The municipality maintains two penitential brotherhoods that lead processions during Holy Week, preserving centuries-old religious traditions.

The population of 18,849 residents multiplies during summer months when visitors arrive to enjoy the beaches and regional Moscatel wine production.

The Chipiona lighthouse stands 69 meters tall as Spain's largest, Europe's third largest, and the world's fifth largest navigational beacon.
