The town was renamed Novo Sancti Petri, and is now an upmarket tourist resort. In recent years this tourist complex has become one of the trendiest places on the coast, offering a complete range of activities. Golfing is one of the resort's main attractions and over the past few years more and more golfers prefer to head over to Novo Sancti Petri, partly thanks to the fact that it is so close to Jerez airport.
