Cartaya, Municipal center in Costa Occidental de Huelva, Spain
The municipality stretches across 226 square kilometers of varied landscapes, including pine forests, marshlands, and four kilometers of Mediterranean coastline along the Piedra River.
Don Pedro de Zúñiga established the town in the 15th century and constructed a defensive castle in 1453 to guard the passage through the Río Piedras.
The Parish Church of San Pedro, built between 1575 and 1606, stands in Plaza Redonda as a central religious monument of the municipality.
The town center maintains direct road connections to Huelva via the A-497 highway and connects to nearby coastal settlements through the A-5058 route.
The Rio Piedras estuary features a natural sand formation called Arrow of Nueva Umbría, creating protected waters for local maritime activities.
