Los Canos de Meca is a beautiful beach town located in eastern Cape Trafalgar, Costa de la Luz, Spain. The town boasts gorgeous beaches surrounded by pine tree forests and cliffs. It is the historical site of the famous 1805 Battle of Trafalgar. It became popular as a favorite beach destination for surfers and beatnik travelers. This virgin territory in Cadiz Province and autonomous region in Andalusia is a challenge to access due to its location. It could be reached by taking the small northern side roads of Vejer de la Frontera or through the coastal road along north Barbate. If you are looking for a bohemian summer holiday, Los Canos de Meca is the perfect place to visit. There are several vacation rentals within the area that feature cozy, home-style accommodations ideal for family vacations. These are near the beach and other town attractions like the El Pirata, the famous restaurant overlooking the sea serving delicious seafood dishes, and Cape Trafalgar where you will see the historical lighthouse illuminating the coast.
