I was super excited to be here. It has a mystical halo to it. “The end of the known world” in old times. Today we could see Africa from the coast. It was sunny, windy and quiet. Beautiful spot

It was a wonderful place to see the Europa point and from there you could see Africa and more there was a light house also a mosque so beautiful stunning on its own the view overlooking was so fantastic also seen the Harding battery memorial

Breathtaking Views and Rich History at the Tip of Europe! Parking is available on site. Europa Point is an absolute must-visit when you're in Gibraltar! Standing at the southernmost tip of the Rock, you're treated to truly spectacular panoramic views across the Strait of Gibraltar, where the vast Atlantic meets the Mediterranean. On a clear day, you can beautifully see the coast of North Africa just a few miles away – it's an incredible feeling to be at such a geographical crossroads! Beyond the stunning vistas, Europa Point is rich with significant landmarks. The iconic red and white Europa Point Lighthouse is a beacon of maritime history. Nearby, you'll find the beautiful Ibrahim-al-Ibrahim Mosque, the historic Shrine of Our Lady of Europe, and the fascinating Harding's Battery with its restored cannons. There's also the poignant Sikorski Memorial. The area is well-maintained, with open spaces perfect for strolling, soaking in the views, and capturing amazing photos. It's a place where history, culture, and nature converge in a truly unique and memorable way. Don't miss it!

Stunning views! We got there for the sunset 🌅 there are interesting facts to read about the area and monuments to observe. The lighthouse is interesting, but the best thing about the point was the view of the sunset!

Southernmost tip of Gibraltar, one can see Africa from this point on a clear day. The Europa Ppint lighthouse or the Trinity Lighthouse is quite pretty with its red and white colours against a backdrop of blue waters and the sky. There was a nice breeze during the day which made the warm sun bearable.

Nice views across to Africa. Cafe was ok but a bit slow. Can get busy but plenty of space.

Definitely worth visiting. Easy to get to from Malaga by car. Large free car park. Good cafe on the side.

Our tour took us to the breathtaking Saint Michael's Cave, and what an experience it was! The cave itself was stunning, filled with mood lighting and enchanting music that truly showcased nature's beauty. While I had anticipated a more extensive cave system, the atmosphere was still captivating.

The caves are not easy to get to and usually require a bus trip to get to. I must say the effort is worth it. Though the area accessible to the public is not large, it is really beautiful. The lights and music set off these limestone formations wonderfully. The stalactites and stalagmites have formed amazing shapes over thousands of years. Of the all the formations the St Michael image is the most sticking and best seen when the lighting reveals the image. The amphitheater is great and I believe there are concerts held in the caves. A great place to visit.

Really amazing cave in some places I would argue the lighting takes away from the natural beauty. The light show is great but don't expect any info on the cave at this point. Definitely worth a visit, stunning natural structures.

So beautiful! Its cool inside, not too hot or cold - just perfect. Every so often there are colourful lights flashing onto the walls of the cave making them look beautiful, as well as showing the area that is meant to look like Saint Michael better. (Included image). There is an area with a bunch of chairs where you can watch a little show of lights on the cave walls every seven minutes. There is a few stairs so wouldn't recommended someone with limited mobility to go however there is a wheelchair lift available to the show area.

It was a really nice experience. The light installations are pretty and effective. There is a small area with chairs for concerts. The acoustic must be amazing. Sadly we had no time for a concert there. 😊

Amazing cave full of impressive stalactites and stalagmites, with spectacular lighting that makes the visit even more magical. The auditorium inside is unique and adds a special touch. A must-see if you visit the Rock of Gibraltar.

We’re visiting from Romania. Absolutely stunning! The cave is magical with its lights and atmosphere, a true must-see in Gibraltar. They even host concerts here, which makes it even more special. Unique experience, highly recommend!

Great experience! We saw the monkeys, enjoyed the stunning views, and it was totally worth it. We booked tickets in advance, it's a must, otherwise you waste hours in line in a hot weather. Beautiful place, definitely recommend! 🐒🌍

Offers great views all the way to Africa. Cable car takes you to the top in only 6-7 minutes. Up there you can see wild monkeys.

Visiting the Rock of Gibraltar was such a memorable experience. The views from the top are absolutely breathtaking — unfortunately it was a bit foggy on the day we were visiting the Rock. The famous monkeys are definitely the stars of the show. They’re playful, curious, and not afraid to get close (so hold on to your snacks!). The hike to the top is amazing — you pass so many interesting spots along the way and the scenery just keeps getting better the higher you go. It’s a perfect mix of nature, history, and adventure.

Best Way to Enjoy It (SAVE MONEY! AVOID CABLE CAR!) This is the best and cheapest way to do it! First things first — avoid the cable car! It’s expensive and you’ll miss out on the full adventure. Instead, start your journey from the Union Jack Steps / Straits and walk up. The route is scenic and full of incredible viewpoints. When you reach the first main point called Devil’s Gap, you’ll find the Nature Reserve entrance. Here you only need to buy one ticket for around £30 & THAT’S ALL YOU HAVE TO PAY! Don’t waste extra money elsewhere! That single ticket includes access to all the top attractions: • The Suspension Bridge • The St. Michael’s Cave (absolutely breathtaking — don’t miss it!) • The Skywalk • And several other amazing viewpoints along the way You can walk in a circular route around the Rock, which takes about 3–4 hours, or take a shorter 1–2 hour route straight to the top, there are multiple paths, so you can choose based on your time and energy. And yes, you’ll definitely see the famous MONKEYS! 🐒 They’re fun to watch but don’t feed them and keep your distance, they can get curious and might try to grab your stuff! If you can, stay until sunset, the view is unforgettable. You can even see Africa across the sea on a clear day! 🌅 Honestly, this hike is worth every step, don’t waste your money on the cable car. Get the real experience by climbing the Rock yourself! the views, the nature, and the sense of achievement are unbeatable!

What a beautiful place to visit, stunning views and the monkeys are so lovely. Nice cafe at the top, and plenty to see. We walked down and went in the tunnels as well. My issue is the amount of taxis piled up waiting. At one point there were at least 30!! You end up spending your time avoiding being run over as they don’t care and act like they own the place. One beeped his horn at me and I was nowhere near in his way. I think that amount of taxis ruins the experience.

We loved Gibraltar :) There is a lot to visit here - for example, viewpoints with monkeys, caves, military tunnels, a castle and much more. The trip is for the whole day. I recommend visiting! :)

We recently spent the day at the Rock of Gibraltar and it did not disappoint! We travelled up the rock using the cable car and walked back down. The ride up took around 4 minutes and offered fantastic views. The walking descent allowed us explore the nature reserve and its attractions at our own pace and had some brilliant sights along the way too (but beware of the aching legs the next day!). A Nature Reserve ticket is a must and gave us access to key attractions like St. Michael's Cave and the historic Great Siege Tunnels. You can buy this ticket online or in person at the Cable Car ticket office; the price was the same either way. Throughout our walk, we also found various cafes, gift shops, and plenty of toilet facilities. This allowed us to comfortably spend the entire day on the rock. The views were incredible, stretching out over the sea and into Africa. Be mindful of the Barbary macaques but we found that left alone (and away from food), they were no trouble.

A bit expensive we paid close to €200 return for 2 adults and 2 children. The ride is short but the views are amazing and totally worth it. I think the easiest way to get up the rock in Gib! We got the tickets that include the Nature Reserve! Buy tickets in advance the wait is long, bring water!

Amazing views from the top, where you can see all the way to Africa. We visited on Friday, not too busy. Just a couple of people in line to buy tickets. The line to enter the cable car was whatsoever a bit longer and it took almost 30 minutes in the sun with no air condition. On the top you get to see wild monkeys. There is also a souvenir shop and a small bar.

What an experience. 🙈 I bought my ticket for the cable car (CC) and the shuttle to it before crossing the border for 23€, which was the first mistake. Once I got to the entrance of the CC there were two lines. One for the people who bought their tickets in advance and one for people who didn't have tickets yet. The least was way shorter and got merged with the we-already-have-tickets line at some point further down the road, so the no-tickets-guys all passed me by and it felt like you get punished for paying earlier and attending prepared. Also, there was a guy who told us, this line takes 1.5h and offered a better shuttle ride going up directly for the cost of about 50€. Great. Another punch to the guts for paying in advance. After being in line for an hour, suddenly I've been told that the last pre-paid shuttle ride back to the border leaves at 4:30, however it was already 3p.m., so I knew, I would never make it in time and would have to pay again to use the public bus. "Honorable mentions": there is only one toilette half way through line, which you'll reach after about 45 mins and there is no place to buy drinks, which is lethal standing that long in the heat. Furthermore, the 23€ didn't include going to the skywalk. On top of the rock they asked me to pay another 30£ to go there, which I declined. My advice: Take the public bus to the CC for about 2,60€ (Bus numbers 5 or 10, which start right where the shuttles start, when crossing the border to Gibraltar) and take the offered shuttle ride instead of the CC at the bottom of the rock for 50€. They will offer it right at the beginning of the line to the CCs. I certainly won't ever get into this line from hell again. Once you've made it to the top, it's a good experience.

It is extremely crowded. If you buy online, you still have to wait to exchange the code you receive with the real ticket. After waiting for an hour, we barely managed to make it to the half of the queue. We decided to hike to the top, which is actually a very nice experience. I recommend hiking and buying the Nature Reserve tickets from the road.

There are many questions and little precise information about how to get at the top of the rock and see all the sights. Tried to put it all together. 1. Should I book the cable car in advance and how do I get at the top? It depends on whether you arrived in Gibraltar on your own or on a cruise ship. It also depends on whether you want to just go up to the restaurant with nice views and go back or walk along the entire cliff. The decision is up to you, but the ticket price will also depend on it. A) If your cruise arrives at 7-8:00 am, it is better to be on the cable car by 9:00 am, then you can avoid a long line and will wait for a maximum of 15-30 minutes. NB! Important! Some people arrived at 11:00-12 o'clock, and then the cable car queue tooj about 2 hours! B) If you are arriving on your own, you can order a taxi tour. Prices and times you get from taxi drivers at Gibraltar. C) You climb to the top on your own. Don't forget to buy an entrance ticket to the rock. The journey will take approximately 1,5 - 2 hours depending on the route and what you want to visit, but it is better to go straight to the top by cable car. This will save you a lot of time if you don't want to spend the whole day on this rock. D) Make booking through your operator. If you are not in good physical condition, advise to arrive early or take a taxi! NB! Monkeys are very interesting, but be extremely careful!!! This is a real monkey gang. They may act cute and funny and not look at you, but at this time another monkey may snatch your bag. If you have food in your backpacks, they can smell it and can atack! Large males are especially dangerous in order to demonstrate their superiority, they may attack everyone in a row, even large human men! If you are with children, keep them close to you, no sudden movements, no desire to pet the monkey!

Great way to get to the top of the rock! They really pack you in though, so be sure to get an outside view. We did the walk from cruise port to the cable car and it wasn't bad. We walked down the rock and stopped at the Skywalk, St Michael's cave and the Apes Den, then back through town to the ship. Overall we did 9+ miles walking. The downhill nature of trail was rough.

Very crowded and very busy you should not visit in the middle of the day!!!! Early morning or late! Otherwise better to go for with guided tours small vans available at the entrance for almost the same price and faster tour for all the landmarks up there! So you don’t need to wait in the son or walk between the landmarks on feet

Lots of little shops, hidden streets cafes, restaurants. Nice place to wander, explore and people watch. Lovely little craft shop in the square as you enter.

Great shopping street, kept very well and cleaned every evening

Plenty of shops ,bars and cafes. A very busy street. Rolex, Boss, hotel chocolat to name a few. Perfect place to people watch.

The street is absolutely cute! Lot of flags and flowers, big effort to make it look as British as possible. Lots of shops, services and places to stop and have drinks. Is worth to spend some time walking down the street and taking in all the fun options.

Lots of shops, however, mostly jewellers and alcohol and tobacco shops. Can get very busy with tourists. A few cafes at the end.

Nice long street in the centre of Gibraltar. Has a good selection of shops but many are owned by the same company so for example, jewellery shops and perfume shops sell much of the same thing. Have small Next & Marks & Spencers but with limited items. Was nice to spend a day there. Probably good for people from cruise ships.

We love this place it’s like visiting a little tropical Britain, It’s a great place to look around with plenty to see & do,there are lots of lovely shops & restaurants,the first thing my Mrs wanted to do was visit Marks & Spencer’s a well known British store...we had a lovely time there would love to go back again & do a bit more exploring...The Gibrartairians are a lovey friendly lot & make you feel very welcome....💕 👍

This a beautiful town, superbly maintained and kept to what seems its traditional heritage. The different coloured flowers on each street add to its charm and the number of pavement cafes and restaurants make it a place to easily linger. A walk along the promenade to the port will take you past beachside eateries and bars to a spot where on the right day there’s a lively market, on the hill above which is the bull ring. Very well worth a visit.

Charming town. Very nice place to wander about for an afternoon.

A really nice cozy place to be in all year long mostly. There’s a lot of restaurants and bars to choose from. Plus you can walk to the beach boulevard and have a very nice walk by the beach.

Very nice for a walk. I am pretty sure is very crowded during season, but the houses are nice

Very nice town

Nice place to walk with family Try to be here before 8 to find parking easier

You should visit this place

Lovely place to visit, it's becoming very expensive and if you crave real Spain maybe go slightly down the coast , still a stunning place.

Fantastic Paseo This is one of our favourite paseo's in Spain. It is a really nice walk is fairly long and has all the expected amenities. During the night it is also great for the kids with some fair rides, etc. Along the paseos there are many cafes and bars.

There are loads of places to eat and drink there are a few shops for gifts and groceries. The whole area is so clean and the playground very well maintained. There is some building works going on at one end but is completely fenced off. There is underground parking near by and reasonably priced.

The promenade of Estepona is located along the beach of La Rada. It is the longest and busiest beach, next to the town centre with a total of almost 2.5 kilometres. It has large, spacious pedestrian areas and gardens and shelter from the sun. We enjoyed walking along the promenade, stopping along at some of the food places located along the boulevard to enjoy coffee, and ice-cream. We noticed they have playgrounds set up for families, which is so nice.

I can't believe there used to be cars in this area. Such a nice paseo! It's wonderful that this exists and it's fun to leisurely walk around and see the sunset!

Very nice promenade. Wonderful flowers all around. We only have had some time in the afternoon, but there is more to see. It's definitely worth visiting this area.

Estapona has changed beautifully over the last few years under this Mayor. The Old Town is gorgeous. Well worth a visit.

The cafe was located in a cute picturesque town. Just enjoying the weather and sun with some great cafe was worth it. The staff were friendly and did their best to seat us by offering extra tables and chairs outside. A lovely place with lovely staff.

Square full of flowers, white houses, all very nice. Must see. Definitely wonderful streets full of flowers. No matter where you look. Beach is 8- 10 minutes away.

The nicest square in Estepona with loads of nice places to eat get coffee or even an ice cream?

Just a beautiful little colorful old town, amazing vibes in the town, narrow white flowery streets, just pleasant to walk the streets and have a look. Peaceful.

Plaza de las Flores in Estepona is a charming and picturesque spot that feels like the heart of the town. The square is beautifully lined with vibrant flowers and lush greenery, creating a peaceful and colorful atmosphere. Surrounded by traditional whitewashed Andalusian buildings, it's the perfect place to relax, have a coffee, and enjoy the views. At night, the square comes alive with stunning lighting that enhances its beauty even more. The mix of restaurants and cafés nearby, along with the fountain in the center, makes it a must-visit spot. A truly lovely place to soak in the essence of Estepona! Definitely recommended 👌

Visiting old town is a great way to spend an afternoon. The scenery is beautiful.

Beautiful square in Estepona old town , with lovely shops,restaurants, bars, and cafes . Definitely recommend the pancake at the cafe on the corner near the square.

I stopped by with just the tender, as my boat was too large to enter and had to remain at anchor. The town itself is charming and easily reachable on foot from the port, thanks to a beautiful, flower-lined promenade along the beach. The city center is lovely, especially the narrow, flower-filled streets of the old town.The marina staff were incredibly kind, welcoming, and helpful throughout my visit.

Like the blue and white look of the port , love the Thai ,Indian and many other restaurants. Hope it stays the way it is and doesn’t lose its charm by turning into a second Marbella.

What a wonderful place to stay, to visit, to enjoy sailing sports or simply a nice morning or evening walk with a drink !

Our hotel was in a great location looking out to the sea!, Everything you wanted was within walking distance some great restaurants and bars.

Nice small Puerto with a variety of restaurants, and bars. drink, and to have a walk. Parking on the Puerto available.

Small and somewhat outdated marina, but hey it is always relaxing to walk in a marina. On the other hand there are many restaurants here. Pay attention, in the "old" fisherman's port you will find the best restaurant ,-) ..see pictures to find the spot, so you do not get fooled by the cozy appearance of the restaurants (and Jazz bar) immediately in the touristic area.. Take your time. Choice is abundant.

This is a beautiful port loads of fantastic boats sailing and miter . There are plenty of wonderful bars and restaurants all around the port . There is a lovely walk flat and safe dog friendly and wheelchair friendly

Only visit if you pratice some kind of wind surf. Also there's poop in the beach from horses and dogs. Nevertheless, is really beautifull.

A wide, spacious beach on the ocean in Tarifa, but if you want a calm and sheltered spot, it’s best to visit Carbones 13. Besides great cocktails, they’ll serve you delicious food. There are also sunbeds available.

Stunning white clean sand and stretches on for miles. Loads of kite surfers (so not ideal if you don’t like wind)

Huge playa, very windy so perfect for water sports

The most wonderful place in the world

Endless stretch of sand full of Water Sports fanatics - mind all the bloody ropes/strings/kites /equipment laying around on the sand 🙄 - about two miles walkable dunes swept by wind and salty water. As for the wind, it blows so hard that you can't even have a conversation 😁 It's not an easy task but the shore is amazingly clean and the light blinding white, the water is green and blue and grey and has no end. There's a very crowded Bar, the only one in the whole beach so expect crazy prices but the views are unbelievable. Bring litres of Sun Protection, the sun is very unforgiving and there is no shelter of any shape or form.

Great beach! Wide and long with white sand 👍 Still windy so you dont feel the heat, which is great, but beeare of sunburn 😉 The best place to see the sunset in Tarifa 👍

This is of course an atmospheric and special place to stay, but somehow it didn't really make me happy. My room was nice and the view spectacular, but the bathroom was clearly in need of a makeover - tiles cracked, fittings coming off from the wall. Food/dining is a rather joyless affair; the breakfast area is tiny and cramped, and so is the only restaurant in the complex, El Aljibe, in which I had a very average and somewhat overpriced dinner. Staff were nice, most of them anyway. Obviously you stay here for location and atmosphere, but as a hotel this is rather average.

Dreadful. Staff poorly trained. Absent after 8pm. Wi-fi poor. No help in sourcing food from the restaurant when it was pouring rain and strong winds. Extremely disappointed especially since it was our honeymoon. Sincerely regret booking.

Beautiful location on our way to Ronda. Recommend for a quick 20 minute stop to take in the sights.

Ideal for a 1-2 nights stay. We arrived at night which made the road up a bit challenging as there are no lights. We enjoyed the stay watching the sunset and sunrise and where greeted by numerous vultures flying in front of our window the first morning. We had dinner in the hotel restaurant which was cozy and nice and opted for the breakfast buffet which had a good enough selection to start the day well.

Fantastic views, room is great with a big bed, not a great selection of food, but overall a great experience.

Recommend one/max two nights stay (we stayed for 3 nights and this is a bit too much). Horse riding is absolutely gorgeous (book and pay from reception). Restaurant in the castle is really good, locals often come here for a nice lunch or dinner, we tried almost all dishes over there. Warm salad with the goat cheese, both wild boar and deer are delicious. Medieval houses provide with an amazing feeling. Just don’t expect super clean surfaces (the hotel tries to clean it, no worries, it’s just that type of old surfaces). Cooking inside did not work, no wifi and electricity breaking- all of that fits quite well to the concept actually

We stayed in the castle overnight and it was magical. The views alone are unreal and make it worth it. The room is very spacious too. Highly recommend and would easily spend another night there. Things close down early but they have a restaurant in the castle which is good and not horrible in price either. To enter the hotel you need to walk into the courtyard which I read off a previous review as it isn’t well signed marked. The parking is easy enough and it’s a short walk up to the reception desk. Definitely recommend staying here but have a car so you can come and go as you please.

Hidden gem well worth a visit for it's history and views

Lovely open air museum. Fantastic views. Make sure to check out the small cemetery next door for more history.

Well worth the hike to the top of the hill to view the old castle. Spectacular views of the village below and the country side. You can walk up to the tower and then back around the walls. It is free and open during daylight hours or until 9/10pm. You need good footwear as the rocks are slippery and unstable in places.

A nice castle with nice views. During our visit there was a significant amount of renovation work being done and the towers were not accessible. There is almost no parking close to the castle so we recommend parking in the town and walking up (it’s very steep). During off season you should be able to find parking nearby.

Beautiful spot in a sleepy local town. The views were stunning and populated with Birds of Prey. Eagles, Egyptian Vultures I think? We popped over on our wedding anniversary and found it a romantic quiet stroll.

Amazing Views. I wish there were more context. Unfortunately the path to the castle was littered with dog faeces - making the climb very unpleasant especially for those with kids who like to run around. Free to enter.

Beautiful view of countryside, history and no entrance fee

Amazing place, highly worth a visit. The visit is only in small groups (max. 25 people) which ensures a great experience of the cave. The guide (very friendly and helpful) / commentary was bilingual Spanish / English. This visit mixes archeology (cave paintings in great condition) and geology (amazing cave structures). We did it with a 13 and a 7 year old boys and they both loved it

This is a neat cave with prehistoric cave art. The walk up is short and steep, and the walk inside the cave is uncertain so you should be steady on your feet Our guide spoke both English and Spanish and did a wonderful job answering questions The website is still under construction, but tours are the only way inside the cave and cost €15 per person. I would recommend buying them in advance since the number of visitors is limited to reduce the impact on the cave

Great experience! The guide gave the tour both in Spanish and English, which she did expertly. The tour took around an hour and a half. Because of limited number of tours and places per tour, making reservations is recommended.

So cool and interesting! The guide/owner is very knowledgeable and passionate about the caves. The paintings are beautiful, though most are not accessible for safety and preservation reasons. The cave also is home to lots of small bats! Wear good shoes because it is slippery.

Before visiting it is necessary to reserve. Check the time of groups. The guide will show everything. The total length is around 3km, 35% of it is open, rest is under research and was forbidden to cross.

The visit was AMAZING!!! our guide, Thomas Bullon was incredibly helpful and friendly...he told us his great grandfather was the one that discovered the cave which made the tour even more fun. The hike up can be hard to some but it's more than worth it, the cave and the paintings are extremely well preserved as the visits are limited per day to preserve the cave as much as possible..keep that in mind before heading there i recommend calling beforehand. We were lucky enough to have a guided group of only 5 This cave is a must see if you're in the Ronda area!

The tour costs 10 euro. It takes 1.5 hours. And requires walking up and down many steps, about 1km. I enjoyed it very much and would recommend for anyone in the area to visit.

Driving the coastal route from Málaga to Cádiz, Baelo Claudia provided a fascinating insight into the methods the Romans used for preserving fish, fishing for tuna, and producing ‘garum’ - a fish sauce delicacy. Managing to survive an earthquake and pirate raids, it stands as one of Spain’s most complete Roman towns. Efficient, clean set-up – well worth stopping off for.

Prepare yourself with information before visiting this place. It is a very powerful historical site, and if you are filled with knowledge of what happened there, you will gain unforgettable impressions and emotions from being there. It is very important to preserve such relics in order to have the opportunity to touch ancient history.

Lots to see, very well laid out. Interesting site thats right on the beach too.. Wrnt on a Sunday so the Museum was closed but could get access to the remainder of the site.

History is for me very important and can not leave without it. It’s everyone’s present and we need to embrace it. Baelo Claudia site is small and well kept. The government of Spain really does beautiful work to keep their heritage, weather is Roman, or Muslim heritage. Baelo Claudia was an ancient Roman town in Hispania, located 22 kilometres (14 mi) outside of Tarifa, near the village of Bolonia, in southern Spain. Situated on the shore of the Strait of Gibraltar, the town began as a fishing village and trading hub when it was settled approximately 2,000 years ago. Although a prosperous town at the time of Emperor Claudius, it went into a decline partially fueled by earthquakes and was abandoned by the 6th century

Truly a hidden gem in this part of Spain! We visited in the winter and it was so beautifully quiet despite the gorgeous sunny weather. Super cheap entry (particularly if you are an EU resident) and lots to look at and explore- just incredible to see the ruins of an old theatre and to picture what this place looked like so long ago. The museum is small but exquisitely curated, we learnt a lot and would love to come back to wander around again! So stunning right by the ocean, with all the lovely olive trees. There are places to have a picnic too, which I think is just so charming. Definitely recommend this place!

Nice location next to the beach. It’s free to visit for EU citizens. We came at 14:30 and we were constantly reminded by the staff that they were closing in 30.min (15:00)and we had to be “Rapido” 😅 A bit annoying but we still managed to hurry up and see the outside ruins. So be aware of the opening hours beforehand. There is a free parking outside the museum entrance. Worth the visit if you are passing by.

It's a beautiful place There's no admission fee

The sand on the beach is very nice and clean, and easy to find some nice sea shells as souvenirs.

What a beautiful place 😍

One of the best beaches in Spain. Period.

Great view

White sands, clear fresh sea, wide horizons! What else can you ask for?

Stunning place

Wonderful atmosphere and nature.

Beautiful track, really worth it! You can walk in a circle, when you reach the botanical garden be careful not to walk down, there is a sign that you have to go down, but that’s directing you to a local bar. The gardens are closing @1500.

We loved this short route. We did it by road bikes (bad idea, we had to carry them most of the way) but it's a medium difficult path on foot. And the possibility of cooling yourself in the brook is exceptional! Just please take your garbage with you!

Excellent hike for most. Along the small river and lots of shade. Got busy mid day but not much people around 9

Awesome trail along the stream (officially a river) from Benamahoma to El Bosque, about 10 km round trip. The trail is shaded along much of it's route which helps keep it cool even on a hot day (is was 30+ degrees when we walked it but with the shade it was fine). There are some rocky sections and stone stairs so you need to be in reasonable shape but in general an easy trail.

Nice and easy walk, very refreshing with a lot of shade. We were told that it can be very busy during the Weekends, so we went on Thursday and we didn't see many people there.

Nice easy walk. Lot's of shade cover. Avoid at the weekends as it can get very busy.

Brilliant walk, about 1hr 30 mins each way. Loads of waterfalls and a really enjoyable few hours in nature. With a nice drink half way.

I rather enjoyed our time here. You get to see some horse dressage (similar to the start of the show at the royal riding school show in Jerez, but I thought it was done better here. Clearly he had done his time at the school). The cattle, both the bulls and the oxen were of moderate interest. The best part of was the tour of the small museum where Isabella shared some of the details of bulls and bull fighting, along with her clear pride of her family’s heritage.

Truly a remarkable experience. Everyone should go.

Very nice place and very nice people there

Very interesting show and beautiful horse dressage’s. They explained it in all types of languages. I would of liked to see the biggest bull, but they probably weren’t available.

We enjoyed the kind hospitality offered by A Campo Abierto staff throughout the duration of our visit to the ranch. We were greeted by Patricia, a member of the Donec family who was extremely helpful and informative throughout the visit. Patricia provided a comprehensive commentary in fluent English and addressed our questions in full. An arena was used to demonstrate dressage skills followed by viewings of cows, calves and four year old fighting bulls. We learnt so much about the people, livestock and the natural environment. Being from a farming background we appreciated the stockmanship and care necessary to breed the cattle and horses. The demonstrations and visit to the museum enhanced our understanding of the role of bullfighting within Andalusian culture. The visit has inspired us to further explore Andalusian culture during our next visit to Spain. We thoroughly enjoyed this spectacular visit which concluded with a welcome sampling of A Campo Abierto sherry. Thanks to all the staff at the ranch, but especially to Patricia who is a very competent, knowledgeable tour guide and affable host. John & Roberta.

A fantastic, friendly working Bull and horse ranch that how and explains the breeding process of the bulls and horses, thy then show how the animals are brought in from wild and herded into the arena with great skill and care, you can then meet the riders and horses

So fantastic,try to not miss discovering it

This is my third time back with FlySpain. Just completed a MentorPlus and CrossCountry courses, and again excellent! Great and knowledgeable staff. Made every effort to get us in the air but, also with respect to the weather and skill levels, kept it safe. Fred, Paolo, Rob and Nik with there decades of experience were fantastic instructors/guides. Went to a variety of locations based on conditions. Even a shuttle pick up and drop off from Malaga Airport is included! Excellent prices and accommodations are included as part of the course. Just a 10 minute walk to town for restaurants and groceries. Hope to be back again FlySpain!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ FlySpain BHPA CP Course Review I completed my BHPA CP Paragliding course with FlySpain and couldn’t recommend them more highly. Instructors Fred and Rob were exceptional throughout. They struck a great balance between structure and flexibility, keeping safety at the core while adapting to each pilot’s level and confidence. Their pragmatic approach stood out. Those of us with a bit more experience were encouraged to progress faster and try more challenging tasks, while others received the extra guidance and coaching they needed. It created a supportive atmosphere where everyone could develop at their own pace without pressure or delay. The week was well organised, the equipment was in top condition, and the site offered a perfect range of conditions for learning. By the end, I felt genuinely confident flying independently, something that’s a credit to how Fred and Rob teach. If you’re considering learning to paraglide or completing your CP, FlySpain is a superb choice.

Rob, Dylan, Fred, Marcello, and Paolo are incredible instructors — professional, patient, and fully committed to helping every student get the best out of the course. The safety standards are top-tier, and it’s clear how much time and effort goes into every aspect of the training. Great accommodation and a friendly, supportive community made it an unforgettable experience. Highly recommend.

The instruction with Tony, Julio and Paulo over the two courses EP/CP was outstanding. Accommodation offers a choice of rooms and cooking facilities with a small pool close to town. Great team, efficient and your safety is paramount to them. Looking forward to returning for my MP!

I did the EP course here in late September/early October. The course and instructors were great and the accommodation was very pleasant to stay in. I would happily come here again for further training! It was also very enjoyable and informative being able to socialise with other paragliders who were staying in the same accommodation but doing different training.

This is my second time coming to Algodonales to do a course with FlySpain. I was on the Mentor Plus with Paolo and Dylan. I really enjoyed my time, despite being a group with varying airtime and experience the instructors made sure they catered to everyone’s abilities. Dylan and Paolo are very safety conscious, knowledgeable, patient and friendly. I got a lot out of the week and was able to be pushed of my comfort zone because I felt so safe and seen (they always had eyes on us and were on the radio whenever it was needed). The instructors were open to my many questions and always had answers and ways to explain things so I could understand. My highlight was having my first thermalling flights! For a travelling dirt bag like myself the price is at my limit of my budget, but I believe it is worth it for the quality of the course, instructors and accomodation. The whole team is amazing. I would recommend this school to my friends and hope to be back again one day. Much love, thanks team!

My son and I have just returned from two weeks with FlySpain in Algodonales doing back to back EP and CP courses and to sum everything up in two words: SIMPLY FANTASTIC. We could not have asked for more. Our instructors, Marcelo, Julio, Fred & Dylan overseen by Rob, were all absolutely top draw. We could not have wanted for a more comprehensive, safe, teaching environment with great kit and weather. Nothing was too much trouble and every effort was made to create and enjoyable balance of theory and flying, resulting in some epic soaring flights, including nearly two hours at sunset over El Bosque. To cap things off, we stayed in FlySpain’s accommodation “The Eagle’s nest”, a very comfortable cluster of houses equipped with all mod cons, with outside terraces and pool, five minutes walk from the centre of Algo’ and its cafes and bars. Finally, a shout out to Nic, who clearly works tirelessly behind the scenes to keep the show on the road and makes all of the organisation seem effortless. Truly an exceptional experience and thank you FlySpain for the life changing memories! I cannot recommend them enough.

Cape Trafalgar, battle of Trafalgar! Beautiful site with a good view of the Coast. There are paths around the lighthouse and beaches surrounding it. But if you come here to read historical info signs about the battle, there are none. (Spain and France lost this one 🙄). But its still worth a visit.

Sunset at this place was beautiful! Whole beach area is magnificient! 👍😉

We didn't know how steeped in history this place is. Indeed the trafalgar-square in London got its name from this place, where Englands ships beated French and Spanish Ships crushingly. Since then England was the one sea power for over a hundred years. It's nice to look at sunsets and moonrises as well ;-)

One of the most magical places in Europe.

Wild, windswept & very nice, but be prepared for a trek from the car park! Another great beach where nudity is prevalent, however there are better beaches in this area.

this is a special place , we from pedrotours hike and always pass by here

Was this the place great sea battle was fought and Nelson died? I wonder, it looks so serene. Beautiful beach 🏖️.

Favourite beach for surfing

Amazing big space, wild with lots of restaurants and places on the back

Beautiful beach with plenty of surf schools. Beginner friendly waves and plenty of space for everyone

Beautiful beach with optimal circumstances for surfing 🏄‍♂️

(Translated by Google) A magnificent beach in Conil de la Frontera, it's a quiet beach with fine sand, crystal-clear waters, and beautiful views from the cliff. Access is easy, with a path from the top leading up to the beach conveniently. In the mornings at low tide, it's perfect for walking toward Fuente del Gallo and reaching the Civil War bunker, which is very well preserved. The beach is quite large, with plenty of space to leave your belongings and relax without being crowded. There are several beach bars where you can grab a drink and parking areas in several areas. (Original) Magnífica playa en Conil de la Frontera, es una playa tranquila, con arena fina, aguas cristalinas y unas vistas preciosas desde el acantilado, el acceso es fácil, desde arriba hay un camino para llegar cómodamente. En las mañanas con la marea baja es perfecta para andar en dirección Fuente del Gallo y llegar hasta el búnker de la guerra civil, que se conserva en muy buen estado. La playa es bastante grande, hay espacio para dejar tus cosas y estar a gusto, sin estar pegados unos a otros. Hay varios chiringuitos para poder tomar algo y zonas de parking en varias zonas.

(Translated by Google) We loved it! The beach is super soft and sandy! Spectacular sunsets! (Original) Nos encantó! Playa de arena super suave! Atardeceres espectaculares!

The place is very beautiful and well mantained! Overall it was a very good experience there. The house we stayed was very clean and comfortable. The communication wasn’t the best one because the majority of the staff didn’t speak english. The dinner we had there was very good. The breakfast was good too - but would be better if they had more options and a menu to make the choice easier.

Beautiful scenery with great views of Arcos. The course is beautifully located and has a great course design. Just don't play golf here: range unkempt and poor range balls, the bunkers with no sand, the faiirways dry and hardly any turf. The greens are dull. We had buggies with gasoline engine.!

No facilities at all. Club house closed. Had to collect keys from security. Fairway sand bunkers need mowing. Full of grass. Greens not particularly good. Gone right downhill since last played here.

Fantastic course... in 2024, the team and greenkeeper have done a top dressing of all the greens... Big improvement... And pleasure to play a Championship golf course. Thank you for this uge work on the greens.

Be careful if you come to this place with pets. Several cats and dogs have been poisoned.

Scorchio and peaceful. With more houses sold and occupied this area is going from strength to strength.

Played this course for the second time this spring. They are doing a good job restoring it to its original conditions.

The beach is really nice, there is some places to enjoy a drink or explore local food but the most interesting is the white sand and the blue water, I really enjoyed my time there and I will come back.

By far the best beach we visited near Cádiz! The sea was a bit wavy but so much fun to swim in. The water temperature was just perfect – not too cold, not too warm. The coastline is long and peaceful, with a really relaxing vibe

Amazing, smooth sand, sea temperature in October was better than expected, several nice chirinquitos around. Free parking in october and accessibility

Amazing beach, very clean with excellent facilities. ( Great for sunsets too 😉 )

The most wonderful beach, especially for children as it slopes so gently. It is quite windy so lots of waves but i seriously suggest long hair is tied back or it will be stuck to your sun lotioned face and lip balm. Glorious sunsets here too. We went in October, the sea was warm and the beach almost deserted. Perfect. Excellent free parking and small play areas dotted about.

One of the best beaches I’ve been to

Great room, lovely hotel and nice beaches in the surrounding area. Two downsides: Firstly, the wifi was absolutely terrible, and at some points just didn't seem to exist. Second was that we had to wait 1.5 hours after check in to get our room, and even though they very kindly gave us a complementary drink, none of the staff apologised or said sorry at any point (maybe I'm just very English in this situation). But ignoring that, this place is magical!

Unfortunately, our stay at Hotel Playa Victoria in Cádiz did not meet our expectations. The value for money was simply not justified. The rooms are outdated and in need of renovation. One of the major issues was the shower – the water was scalding hot and impossible to regulate, even after contacting the reception. No solution was offered, which made the stay uncomfortable. The hotel advertises a beachfront location, but there is no direct access to the beach. While the pool temperature was pleasant, there were far too few sun loungers available, making it difficult to relax. The only positives were the location and the friendly check-in experience with Nacho at the reception. Beyond that, the hotel falls short in many areas and we would not choose to stay here again.

*Edited due to managers response with attached photo of confirmed sea front reservations from booking.com which was not given to me until I insisted and had to send screenshots of reservation. Continuous accusations of false claims is tiring.* Noelia, Alvaro were terrible for check in and check out. Alvaro was not helpful and although my mom needed accessibility, he told me it wasn’t possible. This was after the issue of trying to give me partial ocean view when I paid for ocean front. After about an hour of back and forth, they “found” an accessible shower room. During check out, we were told we didn’t pay for parking when in fact we did. Noelia who is front desk and service oriented insisted it wasn’t paid even with proof of payment because Alvaro did not provide ticket or any other service... Overall the hotel needs work. During our stay, we were not informed of beach towels, buffet lunches, parking or additional information that would help our stay. Do better, treat people kinder and elevate your service consistency.

This is a long stretch of golden sand at the modern end of Cadiz. There are walkways along it at various intervals with beach bars and toilet facilities. On the other side of the promenade you will find a vast array of hotels, apartments and eating and drinking establishments to suit all palates.

Hotel from the 90s and it shows. Big room great bed. Noisy city side but ok with closing the Windows. 3 star hotel in my opinion. Nice personnel.

Unfortunately, our stay at Hotel Victoria Playa Cádiz was far from what we expected. The room smelled strongly of sewage, and the shower only produced scalding hot water – no way to cool it down. I ended up using the pool shower instead, which barely worked either. The wallpaper in the room was peeling off in several places, and at the pool, it was a daily fight to get a sunbed – mine was broken, adding to the frustration. Access to the beach is only possible through a makeshift path via an emergency exit, which felt anything but relaxing. For the price we paid, this hotel is simply outrageous. Positive: The staff were friendly and the location is quite good. But that’s about all I can say on the plus side.

PROS: The staff are very polite and helpful. The location is good, on the beach and near most amenities and selection of bars and restaurants. Although the quality of food generally is not very good. It’s a very touristy place. The breakfast at the hotel is good, but some items like pancakes you could only get if you eat before 9am and the “hot food” is more lukewarm or cold that hot. CONS:. At €330 a night for bed and breakfast you may expect some luxury but unfortunately you will not get any. The rooms are small and very dated and lack very basic facilities such as tea/coffee machines, slippers and ropes that usually you get in 4/5 star hotels. Our room had sea views and that part was nice, but there was a smell of damp and sweat as soon as we walked in which would not go away no matter how much we aired the room. We could not even get WiFi in our room. The hotel said they had problems with their provider. The hotel was full so we could not get another room and as we had prepaid, refund was not available either to go somewhere else. The pool is very small and kids and adults are jumping into it all the time so forget about a peaceful swim or sitting by the pool. There are only around 20 or so sunbeds available. Nowhere near enough for the demand. To hire a sunbed on the beach is €22 for 2 beds which is around €10 more than average and can get very expensive if you want to sit on the beach every day. The hotel car park is also expensive at €23 per day and in high season it is almost always full. There are nearby parkings around €17/€18 per day, but they’re also often full and some are so tight that you cannot even get out of the car. Basically, avoid Cádiz in summer months as it’s very crowded and everything is overpriced including the hotels!

Nice cathedral in colonial style. The entry ticket costs 10€, a bit expensive but I recommend to visit inside. Outside there are many restaurants, i consider them more touristic places and I suggest to just walk few meters and you can find more choices and less touristic.

Very recommended. Do not miss it:) Beautiful cathedral with interesting architecture and history. It has a large grotto ( including a mummy of a maiden in incredibly good condition!). The entry includes headphones tour guide, entry to the church tower where you can take a panoramic look at the city from above, the tower is relatively easy to climb as it hardly has any stairs! The ticket price also covers the museum (a bit away from the cathedral but closes at 16:00!) On the square before the cathedral there are a couple of coffee-bars and an ice cream shop which are open daytime (unlike the restaurants which open mostly later than 20:00) and a rooftop bar which opens only in the evening. The drinks and food prices are normal and very convenient for a main square shop - unlike most European cities:) I got my entry ticket on the spot but it can also be purchased online in advance.

Cádiz Cathedral is a very impressive and monumental building, uniquely placed so close to the sea and is beautiful both inside and out. The views of the city from the bell tower are spectacular and the crypt is not to be missed. The first time we were there the Christmas Crib was still in place and it was stunning. My favourite part are the two angles on both sides. Lots of good artwork and the silver on display is amazing.

While on RCCL Explorer OTS Transatlantic West 2025 we stopped at Cadiz. It was an easy and fun port for sightseeing and walking. It you like old architecture and history the Cathedral is a must visit. There is also a Jesuit church nearby that is 0 KM of the El Camino de Santiago route from the southwest of Spain. Lots of history to explore. We enjoyed the musicians that performed in front of the cathedral.

We stopped in Cadiz while on a long cruise from Lisbon. We spent the day walking around the old city center just exploring. Lots to see here. Today was marathon day in Cadiz so every place we went was very crowded. The cathedral is beautiful on the outside. Unfortunately we were unable to enter the church due to the marathon and crowds. We sat at a cafe in front of the cathedral and just enjoyed all the happenings.

So beautiful! We climbed the bell tower and got the best views! The square was so pretty and not too crowded, had a sangria at a café outdoors in the square. So enjoyable!

Magnificant view at top of clock Tower, but you need to climb about 7 storey of spiral slope. Worth the effort. Beware of deafening sound from the tower bells!

Marta was a great tour guide. She explained everything to our group and had a playful sense of humor. The views of Cadiz and beyond were amazing. The staircase is a workout but the views are well worth it.

Fantastic view of Cadiz This was a great place to come to and climb a few steps to see the view of the town. It was not that expensive and really worth it! Highly recommended!

Very interesting presentation, with stunning view to the city from the top of the tower. Good thing that it was not crowded at all. 8€ entrance is ok price Camera obscura presentation is very interesting and I would like to thank the lady for her presentation and explanation of the city. It's a different and interesting view of seight seeing

Terrific views, well worth a visit as is the city of Cadiz. Book in advance if you want to see the camera obscurer, or pay a little less to access the top and enjoy the views.

Thank you Pablo for an excellent demonstration of the camera obscura. Very entertaining. Brace yourself for the steps and be prepared for fantastic views.

We booked an English tour online. You reserve your place and pay on the day. The camera obscura was better than expected and the views from the top were excellent. Little museum rooms en route were interesting too.

Not a whole lot to see here, better views from the cathedral tower for the same price. Overall it’s a good place to learn about the different towers and their history an usage within the city. Camera obscura is neat.

Pier has seen better days but it is a great little traditional beach. Nice for family's and news agents near by for drinks. Sand isn't the dreamy white stuff you see in pictures and almost feels a bit British.

Great beach in the center of Cadiz. Enjoying our stay here today.

Located in beautiful Cádiz, it is an idyllic spot. The beaches, good food and rich history. Definitely plan on returning!

Cádiz, La Caleta is a beach located in the historical center of the city of Cádiz. It is a natural harbor by which Phoenicians, Carthaginians, Romans penetrated historically. main attraction is its location, a scene that has inspired musicians and poets like: Isaac Albéniz, José Maria Pemán, Paco Alba, and Carlos Cano. It has been pictured in several films, such as 007: Die Another Day, Alatriste, and Manolete.

Not sure how typical it is there, but during our 2 days in Cadiz, water in La Caleta was very turbid (likely due to heavy rain in Andalucia couple days before our arrival). Also loads of seaweed😬 You find much better conditions on the south side of the walkway to the fortress. It has access to open Atlantic and water there is much clearer, but swimming conditions are harder due to higher waves. If you just want to play on the sand - it's a place for you, although we visited pre season and I can see it getting very crowded. Big parkings are available nearby, but be prepared for them to be full or if you get lucky, to dig deep into your pockets - 15€/day seems to be cheap in Cadiz😬

Great beach. The water is calm but cold. There are toilets and showers.

Usually a lot of people, but overall fine
