faq.title
faq.subtitle Cádiz
Cádiz claims to be the oldest continuously inhabited city in Western Europe (3000+ years). Small peninsula with beaches, excellent seafood, famous carnival, and authentic Andalusian atmosphere without mass tourism.
February/March, dates vary. Spain's biggest carnival, very different from Rio - satirical songs (chirigotas), costumes, street parties for 10 days. Book months ahead, prices triple.
Yes! La Caleta is iconic small beach in old town. Playa Victoria is long modern beach. Water can be cool due to Atlantic. Less crowded than Costa del Sol.
Pescaíto frito (mixed fried fish), tortillitas de camarones (shrimp fritters), atún rojo (red tuna). Cádiz is THE place for fried fish in Spain. Try in La Viña area.
Travel Tips
Useful tips for visiting Cádiz
Climb Torre Tavira (camera obscura) for best city views. Shows how watchtowers worked historically.
Carnival (Feb/March) is WILD. Book months ahead or skip this period entirely if you want quiet visit.
Take ferry to El Puerto de Santa María for excellent sherry bodegas and seafood. €3 each way.
Atlantic water is cooler than Mediterranean. Best swimming June-September.
Cádiz is compact peninsula - walk everywhere in old town. No need for transport unless going to Playa Victoria.
