Located in the extreme south-west of Spain, Huelva forms part of the Andalusian region and is bounded to the north by the province of Badajoz, to the south by the Atlantic Ocean, to the east by Seville and to the west by Portugal. It has more than 300 days of sunshine a year, which makes it one of the Spanish provinces with one of the mildest climates and the greatest number of hours of sunshine, exceeding 3,000 hours.

Huelva's coastal location and its physical characteristics made possible the establishment and development of important cultures of indigenous and foreign origin.
In ancient times, the sea served as an outlet for the resources of the mine through Huelva, which was an attraction for the installation of the following civilizations in its lands: Phoenicians, Greeks, Tartessos, Punics and Romans.
In the Middle and Modern Ages, the city ceded its flourishing to the neighbor of Saltés, once again occupying a privileged space with access to the sea. With the rise of marine knowledge led by the sailors of the province in Modernity, the capital stands out, due to its ties with the sea, as the protagonist of the deed of the discovery of America in 1492.
The Contemporary Age is marked by the sale of the Riotinto Mines to the English, which represents a new mode of economic and cultural colonization in the Victorian era. The current configuration of the city is marked by the English presence at the end of the 19th century.
For these arguments Huelva is and will be… “The Gateway to the Atlantic”.
