Description
Few points in the globe can compare to the geographical situation of the Strait of Gibraltar. Only the Strait of Bering and the Strait of Bosforo offer a similar spectacular sight where two seas fuse and two continents stand in front of each other.
Join us in this route by the shores of the legendary columns of Hercules and discover the ancestral war between the forces of peoples, seas and winds doomed to coexist together.
Between the few kilometers that stand between Algeciras from Tarifa, the legends and history unfold:
Pirates, international spies, smugglers, war prisoners, military strongholds and an endless amount of towns spread among both sides of the strait have left their mark on what one day was considered the end of the world.
Come with us in this peculiar trip and maybe you will find a bit of home somewhere in this landscape
