Tarifa, in the province of Cádiz, near the Strait of Gibraltar, lays claim to some of Spain’s prettiest beaches and is one of the best spots for wind sports in the country.
Try out kitesurfing (or other wind sports) down at the beach. KitePassion Tarifa offers private lessons for $65 per hour.
The Route: You’ll need to get the ferry across, of course. FRS runs a few sailings a day from Tangier Ville to Tarifa. The crossing takes an hour and will set you back around $80 for a round-trip.
Koala Tarifa is a guesthouse located in the city’s historic center that offers five apartments in a 300-year-old, perfectly preserved building.
Travelers and locals go to Vaca Loca, a small, friendly, and typically Spanish restaurant known for serving steak and grilled meats in a beautiful, traditional setting.
