Sustainable Travel on Spain's Coasts
ECO REISE
Choose your language
Discover the breathtaking diversity of the Spanish coasts in a way that protects our environment and strengthens local communities. ECO REISE combines unforgettable holiday experiences with responsible tourism.
Why travel sustainably?
For our environment
The Spanish coasts are among Europe's most valuable natural treasures. From the crystal-clear Mediterranean to the wild Atlantic beaches – these unique ecosystems deserve our protection. Sustainable tourism reduces environmental impact, protects marine habitats, and preserves natural beauty for future generations.
Through conscious travel decisions, you actively contribute to the preservation of these special places. Every sustainable choice counts – from accommodation and activities to catering.
For local communities
Sustainable tourism also means supporting local people. We work with regional partners who pay fair wages, promote traditional crafts, and enable authentic cultural experiences.
This way, coastal communities directly benefit from your visit, while you simultaneously get to know the real Spain – far away from mass tourism and standardised offerings. Your journey will be an enrichment for everyone involved.

Regional Gastronomy
Fresh from the Market
Ingredients directly from local fishermen, farmers, and producers – daily fresh and seasonally selected for maximum flavour and minimal transport distances.
Organically Grown
Preference for organic products from the region, cultivated without pesticides and artificial fertilisers, preserving natural soil fertility.
Traditional Recipes
Authentic dishes based on traditional family recipes – from paella and gazpacho to regional fish specialities that reflect coastal culture.
The restaurants we recommend are more than just eateries – they are ambassadors of regional culture and sustainable food production. Many operate their own vegetable gardens, cooperate with small family businesses, or cultivate traditional vegetable varieties. Single-use plastic is taboo, composting is a matter of course.
Enjoy Mediterranean flavours in their purest form: sun-kissed tomatoes, freshly caught fish, aromatic olive oil from local groves, and wines from coastal vintners. Each meal becomes a culinary journey of discovery and simultaneously supports the local economy.
