- The Plaza de San Juan de Dios. Start your day in Cadiz with the Plaza de San Juan de Dios. This square built in the 16th century was for a long time the heart of the city, because of its proximity to the port.
- The Roman Theater. From the calle San Juan de Dios, go to Cadiz Roman theater. Dated from the end of the 1st century BC, it was discovered by chance in 1980.
- Cadiz Cathedral. With its golden dome, Cadiz most famous monument can be seen from everywhere while walking in the city. Started in 1722, the construction of Cadiz Cathedral was completed only a century later and thus mixes several architectural styles such as Baroque and Neoclassical.
- Cadiz Market. After the catehdral, you should walk to Cadiz market. For me, going to the market is a must when discovering a city or region. The best way to discover local products!

Part of the joy of this 18th-century fortress comes from the journey. The fortification is at the end of Paseo Fernando Quiñones, a long stone causeway that runs from the northwestern edge of the city. The views back to Cádiz from this elevated path are scrapbook-worthy, and you can pause to dangle your legs over the wall and watch the Atlantic. Th...
For Cádiz residents this bay on the west side of the city’s oceanfront is more than just a beach: It’s a postcard setting with huge historical importance as Phoenicians, Carthaginians and Romans all moored their ship in this natural harbour in ancient times. Today there are plenty of motorboats and dinghies on the north side, but no tall masts, and...
Running up almost the entire western side of Cádiz is the 2.8 kilometre-long Playa de la Victoria, often rated as Europe’s best urban beach and up with the best of any kind in Spain. It’s just as popular as La Caleta but its size means that you’ll have little trouble escaping the crowds. If you’re up for some sport in the sun then you’ve got severa...
This fine 19th-century concert hall is in the neo-mudéjar style, reviving medieval Moorish design, and is one of the city’s top landmarks. You’ll enter via the large horseshoe-shaped portals that have the classic Moorish-style alternating voussoirs (red and white archway stones). There’s an exciting schedule at any time of year, but if you really w...
Climbing 45 metres above sea level, Torre Tavira was designated Cádiz’s official watchtower in 1778 when it was constructed. At the top of ten flights of stairs and 170 steps is a rooftop terrace with the best view in the city, west to the Castle of San Sebastián and south to the shining dome of the cathedral. One level below the terrace is the tow...
For another superb panorama of Cádiz you can also scale the cathedral’s Poniente Tower, from which you can look out over the port. The cathedral is from the 1700s and combines baroque, rococo and neo-classical styles. In this period Cádiz was going through a boom thanks to trade with the West Indies, Central and South America, which explains the bu...
Bordering the university campus to the north is a gorgeous waterfront park with paths made from the same sand used in Andalusia’s bullfighting arenas. There’s been a green space here for hundreds of years, but the park as we know it was the work of the eponymous Valencian architect Gerónimo Genovés i Puig. There are loads of diverting little detail...
In most Spanish cities a trip to the permanent central market is a good way to see locals going about their day, and the best place to buy fresh produce. In Cádiz the market is an absolute must. The main explanation is that the city’s location on the Atlantic gives it Spain’s freshest fish and seafood. Get there in the morning and the tantalising p...
The Phoenicians from what is modern-day Lebanon settled much of coastal Spain a long time before the Romans arrived, but it can be very hard to find much evidence of their towns and trading posts. That’s what makes Gadir so valuable, because nine metres beneath the surface of Cádiz are the vestiges of a settlement from the 9th century BC. A great d...
Historically this part of Cádiz tapered into a narrow isthmus and marked the southern boundary of the old city. In the 16th century this bulky stronghold was constructed to bolster the defences and was reinforced in the 1700s. The tower that you see above the gate today actually has no defensive purpose. It’s a semaphore tower that was built in 185...

- CATEDRAL DE CÁDIZ. Built with American cash which eventually ran out in 1792, this hulking church dominates the city from most angles. It’s not quite finished and a little patchy in places, which only adds to its colossal charm.
- CÁDIZ CATHEDRAL BELL TOWER (TORRE DE PONIENTE) The Cádiz Cathedral is best viewed from the seafront where the twin 131-foot bell towers preside over the old walled city.
- ORATORIA DE LA SANTA CUEVA. Discovering places like Oratorio de la Santa Cueva is one of the great things about travelling in Spain. Situated behind a very unassuming façade, the oratorio belonged to the mysterious Spiritual Withdrawal Congregation.
- MUSEO DE CÁDIZ – MUSEUM OF FINE ARTS & ARCHAEOLOGY MUSEUM. The Museum of Cádiz combines the Museum of Fine Arts and the Archaeological Museum in one tired building.
