It has six beaches: Playa La Fontanilla, Playa El Roqueo (with a 1936 Civil War bunker), Playa Fuente del Gallo, Playa Punta Lejos, Playa Cala del Aceite and Playa los Bateles. Playa los Bateles is the longest and the most popular in the summer. Conil de la Frontera is primarily a vacation town and the most of the tourists are Spanish although you often also hear German as well in town.

Every Friday you can visit the market on Avda. de la Música, which includes culture and history. The market includes many little trinkets and handmade clothes. The beach is sandy and has volleyball nets.
