Cadiz Information: CAMPO DE GIBRALTAR |
The shoreline of Cadiz, after passing through fishing villages such as Conil, Barbate, Zahara de los Atunes, continues into the small but densely populated district named Campo de Gibraltar, which is very near to Africa.  The tourist may be attracted by the water sports practised here, particularly windsurfing from the long beaches of the area and for which Tarifa, a charming town with a splendid castle and typical urban design, is especially recommended.  Nearby are the Roman Ruins of Baelo Claudia in Bolonia. Golf is another sporting alternative, practised particularly in San Roque. The district contains several important towns, such as AIgeciras, with a population of over 100,000, a busy port and typical quarters and corners, such as the traditional Alta Square, with the Church ofNuestra Senora de la Palma and the Chapel of Europe, or La Linea de la Concepcion, a flat, white town near the Rock of Gibraltar.  Further inland we find old Castellar (new Castellar is a settlement located on the plain) which is appealing because of its setting and striking as a small Medieval village dominated by its Castle and today inhabited by craftsmen and women and peace lovers who live as 20th Century hermits.  San Roque is the historic capital of the district and is also worth a visit, as are Los Barrios and Jimena de la Frontera, the latter with its legendary Castle.
