| The golden sands of Caños de Meca |
Caños de Meca is a small but unspoiled community on the windswept but stunning Costa de la Luz on the Atlantic coast. Deep in the Parque Natural del Acantilado, Caños de Meca has beautiful beaches, backed by cliffs and pine trees. Perched on the cliff-tops straddling the coast road, this sleepy little village is fast waking up to a reputation as a trendy place for beatnik travellers and wave-jumpers to spend the summer.
The singer/actress Lola Flores was originally from this area, and much to the pride of the locals, often spent her holidays in here.
Caños de Meca is well off the beaten track and has to be reached by taking one of the small side roads off the CN340 coast road near Vejer de la Frontera or by taking the minor road through the pine forest from Barbate.
Its almost impossible to escape from the occasional block of flats, but thankfully, there's little modern development.
 The 'El Pirata' restaurant overlooks the beach and offers excellent seafood dishes especially at lunch time. Opposite La Cabana specializes in Moroccan fare, well worth a visit. After the evening meal many visitors descend to the cliff steps to the beach bars (El Pirata recommended) which become discos on hot summer nights. The music stops when the last person leaves or just falls asleep on the beach.
To the north west of the town, is the famous Cape Trafalgar, which protects the town's beaches. The lighthouse protects shipping. This is probably one of the worlds most famous yet unknown places because it was off this point that The Battle of Trafalgar was fought in 1g805. when Admiral Nelson, although greatly outnumbered, attacked and destroyed the Spanish fleet.
The Natural Park protects the 100m high cliffs and pine forests immediately to the east.
