Some areas are covered in mountains while others are full of plains. The vast stretch of coast that extends along Andalusia is filled with bays and inlets. The offer for visitors is extremely varied, from sandy beaches to those beautiful mountain ranges with their highly interesting fauna, and the famous 'white villages' with their richdom in folklore and artisany. There are great possibilities for most different sports as well, from skiing in the Sierra Nevada to surfing at the coast of Cadiz, where you will find ideal conditions as nowhere else in Europe.
