A private day on the Atlantic coast of Tangier: the Cape Spartel lighthouse where the Atlantic meets the Mediterranean, the Caves of Hercules with their natural silhouette of the African continent, and a camel ride along the sand at sunset.

Itinerary day-by-day

  1. Morning

    Cape Spartel

    Private pick-up at sunrise. Climb to the white Cape Spartel lighthouse — the north-western tip of Africa where Atlantic and Mediterranean kiss. Moroccan coffee at the viewpoint with a local historian recounting the Phoenicians, Portuguese and French chapters.

  2. Midday

    Caves of Hercules

    Caves of Hercules visited before public opening — the guest walks them alone with a guide. The cave's silhouette traces the outline of the African continent over the ocean. Light lunch by the sea in a private house.

  3. Sunset

    Dromedary ride

    Private camel ride along Robinson beach at sunset with a Berber host. Return to the Tangier riad before twilight. No groups, no tourist traffic.
