Chipiona is green because it has green areas where you can feel in close contact with nature, such as the pine wood, (El Pinar), forest of pines, easy to reach by bike or on foot; the “cordón dunar”, sand dunes which line the Camarón Beach and Las Tres Piedras Beach and where with its regional flora, with a bit of luck, you will be able to watch one of the last colonies of chameleon left in the south of Europe. It is prohibited to catch them as they are protected. If you want to exercise, take a bike ride from town, along the “green route”, (Via Verde) up to Costa Ballena (Whale Coast). Mountain bikes can be hired at the guesthouse.
Chipiona is also white, because it is surrounded by wonderful beaches of white – golden sand. They are Chipiona’s main attraction, well-know for their health giving properties and where fishing and nautical sports are also practised. Chipiona’s municipal has a total of 12.600 meters, 7.600 of which form the 4 main beaches. They can be very clearly identified, distinguished by their different environmental conditions, natural environment, location and access, all having an undoubted tourist interest. There are wide beaches, of thin, fine sand, where swimming is completely safe because of the beaches gently slope into the sea, whose waters are high in iodine and minerals.
