==Tourism==
The delayed tourist development o the province haes alloued better ceety plannin than in ither regions on the Spainyie coast. The nuclei o [[Islantilla]] an [[Isla Canela]] are an example o this attempt tae plan in a mair coherent form. Awtho in a smawer scale in comparison tae ither regions, urban pressure continues. Previous developments that haed little plannin till recent time are El Rompido, El Portil, Mazagón an Matalascañas (Torre de la Higuera). 

Awtho Punta Umbría haed its beginnins like pedanía de Cartaya, efter the democratization o simmer tourism, it began its urban development for its proximity tae the caipital an its location on the beach. Present development wad no endure athoot tourist activity an its vacation hoosin. Ither tourist auries are Nuevo Umbría, Nuevo Portil, Punta del Moral, La Antilla an Urbasur. 

O note is Huelva‘s recent classification o “landwart tourism” for its interior muntain range.
