Last summer in August I went to Chipiona for a week. We had the house three minutes from the beach. In those days we visited as many places as possible. The day we arrived around twelve in the morning, we dropped our bags and went to the beach to spend the day. The next day we visited the church of the Virgen of the Regla. On the third day we went to the main street where all the atmosphere is. On the fourth day we made a route through the Castle where there were beautiful views. The next few days we enjoyed the beach and walked around Chipiona. It was a fantastic week!
