Torre Tavira

Watch tower from the eighteenth century, situated in the down town and the highest point of the city, turned today into a focal point of cultural interest. The tower has two exhibition halls, the Camera Obscura and the terrace from which you can enjoy wonderful views of CádizIts Cámara Obscura was the first one installed in Spain.

Great panoramic views of Cádiz, totally worth the climb. The camera oscura is also great. Marta was really really nice.

Como bailan los caballos andaluces

Reviewed By Y6347VEcatherines - Richmond, United States

The Andalusian horses are one of the best reasons to visit southern Spain and this show is a wonderful way to see those horses featured. Andalusians are the root breed of the famous Lippizanners of the Spanish Riding School in Vienna. See the horses and riders in this riding school in Jerez, especially with the backstage tour by the head rider, is aweinspiring for anyone who values the pure beauty of the horse.

El Populo

Reviewed By simply-peregrinating - Waddington, United Kingdom

Just to wander around and explore is a great way to spend time in old Cadiz. Plenty of tiny alleys, small squares, churches and interesting building facades. 13th century El Populo at it's heart with entrance arches is a great place to begin. Plenty of tiny shops too if you like shopping along with small bars and cafes.

Beautiful easy walk with the ocean on one side and fantastic gardens on the other . It is fascinating to watch the locals fish from the walls to try their luck at catching some of the amazing g cushion can see in the clear waters.

La Vina

Reviewed By Razorfish - Little Rock, United States

My wife and I had an Airbnb apartment in La Vina during our brief stay in Cadiz this past November. We were located on the Plaza de la Candelaria in the middle of historic Cadiz. We enjoyed being among the locals and out of the tourist area. Our first night was Halloween night and it was interesting to see the parents take their costumed children around to neighborhood businesses. It is a lively area.

Reviewed By CanadianTraveler18

My husband and I both found this site fascinating. We showed up at the box office around 11:30 and got free tickets for the one o’clock tour. Our guide spoke both Spanish and English and after the introductory film (subtitled in English) we were free to walk around the clearly described remains of Phoenician homes and streets. Our guide asked if we had any questions and spent a good half hour explaining things to us. She was very knowledgeable and we felt lucky to have her to ourselves. If you’re interested in history this is definitely worth seeking out.

Lighthouse at Cape Trafalgar

Reviewed By J3334ENlucym - Malton, United Kingdom

This is an amazing beach, a glorious stretch of golden, unspoilt sand backed by dunes and little else -there are a couple of beach chirunguitos at Zahora. The lighthouse stands at Cabo Trafalgar mid way between Zahora and Los Canos de Meca. This is a working lighthouse, you can walk up to the lighthouse and look over Cape Trafalgar into the crashing waters below.
