Puerto Real is a city with a strong maritime past with an important naval industry.

Its foundation is owed to the Catholic Monarchs and it reaches the peak of its splendour in the 18th century with a great artistic life, with film and theatre festivals, photography and art competitons, poetry recitals, etc.

The churches of San Sebastián (c.16th), Victoria (c.17th) and of Jesus, Mary and Joseph, figure among many religious monuments.

This town lies within the Bay of Cádiz Nature Reserve, rest and refreshment stop for flocks of migrating birds. On the outskirts, you can visit the Canteras Park, where there is a grotto housing an image of the Virgin of Lourdes.
