I came to Spain late – my loss. I came to Andalucia even later and seek to remedy that deficiency by returning each winter to escape the grey London skies. Seville and Malaga, Granada and Cordoba are well known to many. May I make a plea for Cádiz?
The absence of an international airport has preserved it from the worst touristic excesses, yet it is an easy train journey from Seville. Once an island, Cádiz is approached across miles of salt flats, lending an air of mystery to this port city. The waves of the Atlantic beat down on one side of the isthmus, the other is gently lapped by the waters of the bay.
