At Cap Spartel, where the Atlantic Ocean meets the Mediterranean Sea, travelers will experience one of Tangier’s most iconic coastal viewpoints. Standing at the northwestern tip of Africa, this dramatic cape offers breathtaking panoramic views of both seas, framed by lush pine forests and rugged cliffs.

Your guide will share the history and maritime significance of this landmark, including stories about ancient shipwrecks, colonial-era lighthouses, and the geographic importance of the Strait of Gibraltar.

You’ll visit the famous Cap Spartel Lighthouse, built in 1864, and have time to take memorable photos against the stunning backdrop of ocean and sky. On clear days, travelers might even glimpse the coast of Spain across the strait.

This stop is often combined with a camel ride along the Atlantic beach nearby, giving you a chance to enjoy a traditional Moroccan experience with the sea breeze and dunes around you.

Step into legend at the Hercules Caves, one of Tangier’s most iconic and mysterious natural sites. Located along the Atlantic coast just a short drive from Cap Spartel, these ancient caves are steeped in mythology, history, and natural beauty.

As you enter the caves, your guide will explain the legend of Hercules, the mythical hero said to have rested here after separating Africa from Europe. Inside, you'll explore naturally formed limestone chambers, partially shaped by the sea and human hands over centuries — once used by Berbers to carve millstones.

The highlight of the visit is the famous "Map of Africa" opening — a dramatic sea-facing hole in the cave wall shaped like the African continent. It's one of the most photographed spots in Tangier and offers a perfect frame for photos with crashing waves in the background.

Whether you're drawn by the myth, geology, or the raw Atlantic energy, a visit to the Hercules Caves offers a fascinating mix of nature, legend, and coastal magic.
