Playa de Camposoto

Playa de Camposoto is a sandy beach in San Fernando along the coast of Cadiz that stretches for several kilometers along the Atlantic Ocean. It features natural dunes and coastal vegetation and lies within a protected nature reserve at the Bay of Cadiz.

The beach was fortified during past conflicts with concrete bunkers built as defensive structures. These remaining structures reflect the coast's strategic importance to Spanish coastal defense.

The shore serves as a gathering place where fishing boats operate and locals swim and relax in the sun. It functions as a social hub where everyday beach life connects with the working port traditions of the nearby town.

Visitors will find showers, lifeguards, accessibility ramps, beach bars, and parking, especially during the summer months. The beach is best visited during calmer water conditions or quieter times if you prefer less crowded areas.

The location attracts surfers because of its wave conditions that shift with the seasons. Winter brings especially good conditions when Atlantic swells reach the shore.
