This place occupies most of the protected areas of the province, which covers 35 percent of its territory. The province also has important places full of history. As for green sports, Huelva has nine golf courses, distributed in eight clubs: Islantilla (27 holes), Isla Canela, Bellavista, Nuevo Portil, Dunas de Doñana, Corta Atalaya, El Rompido (two 18-hole courses) and Costa Esuri.
