Arenas Gordas, Coastal beach area in Province of Huelva, Spain.

The Arenas Gordas stretches across the coastline from Huelva to Almonte, featuring long sandy beaches and extensive dune chains along the shore.

Multiple watchtowers constructed during King Felipe II's reign stand along the coastline, including Torre del Asperillo, del Oro, de la Higuera, and de la Carbonera.

The beach area forms part of the Doñana Natural Space, recognized by UNESCO as a World Heritage site for its ecological significance and biodiversity.

The development of Matalascañas in the mid-20th century established accommodation facilities and services within the coastal territory of Arenas Gordas.

The coastline includes several distinct beaches such as Arenosillo, Mata del Difunto, Matalascañas, Castilla, Inglesito, and Malandar, each with specific dune formations.
