The
Tanger’s surrounding :
The caves of Hercules
(cap Spartel)
According to the Greek mythology, Hercules was resting after he
accomplished the twelve tasks. These caves are partially natural.
The sea enter here at high tide. Indeed, the people came here
to extract the limestone to manufacture the seed millstone. Curiosity
of the site: an opening on the ocean where it draws the outlines
of an African Map.
Cape Malabata
Following the S704, we can set out for another trip to the cape
Malabata. At ten km from Tanger it lays the strange castle of
Malabata, which despite its medieval architecture date from the
outset of the century. A little further, the terrace of the lighthouse
offers a beautiful view on the Tanger Bay and the straits of Gibraltar.
