CostaMap is a map-first guide to the coasts of Spain and the Balearic Islands. Every town and place sits at its real coordinates, so you can see where something is — how far, next to what, on the way to where — before you decide whether it is worth your time.
What we cover
Twelve coasts, one map
CostaMap covers the Costa Brava, Costa de Barcelona, Costa Dorada, Costa Azahar, Costa de Valencia, Costa Blanca, Costa Cálida, Costa de Almería, Costa Tropical, Costa del Sol, Costa de la Luz and the Balearic Islands. In November 2026 that is 11 coast guides, 343 town guides and 417 place pages (beaches, coves, castles, viewpoints, campsites).

How we work
How the pages are made
CostaMap is written with an AI editorial system built and run by Ebizapple. We say that on every page, because you should know what you are reading.
- Sources. Pages are based on public information: official tourism and town-hall websites, heritage and transport authorities, and maps. Many pages list their sources at the end. Not all do yet — those pages say so in their byline, and you should treat their details as a starting point.
- The map. Each place is pinned at its coordinates so the map shows where it actually is.
- Images. Where a page has a licensed photograph, the caption names the photographer and the licence (mostly Wikimedia Commons). Where we have no photograph yet, the main image is an AI-generated illustration made with Ebizapple’s AI image system, and it is credited that way: AI-generated illustration by Ebizapple (AI image · Ebizapple on small cards). It shows the kind of scene, not the exact view: do not use it to judge what a place looks like today.
- Dates. “Published” is when a page first went live. “Updated” is the last time it was changed. It does not mean every fact was re-checked on that day.
- Things change. Opening hours, prices, timetables and access rules change. Check the official source before you travel.
Money
Partner links and advertising
CostaMap is free to read. It earns money in two ways, and both are labelled where they appear:
- Partner links. Boxes marked Partner contain affiliate links — for example airport transfers, eSIMs, car hire, campsites or luggage storage. If you book through one, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. These links are marked (affiliate link) and tagged as sponsored for search engines.
- Advertising. Paid space is marked Advertisement. See Advertise.
