The local roads are generally very quiet except festivities and July / August. The new motorway A4 now extends from Seville to Vejer from where it is a 10 minute drive to Los Caños. If you are coming from Malaga take the motorway via Los Barrios / Medina even though it seems longer on the map it is a faster route than via Tarifa. (Map search engines such as Mappy or Via Michelin will not show this route).
