What to expect

Caves of Hercules
30m

The Caves of Hercules is an archaeological and natural cave complex located at Cape Spartel, Morocco, about 14 kilometers west of Tangier. The caves have a rich blend of mythology, history, and natural beauty. They are famous for a sea-facing opening shaped like the African continent, often called "The Map of Africa," believed to have been created by the Phoenicians. According to Greek mythology, Hercules rested in these caves before performing his eleventh labor: retrieving golden apples from the Garden of the Hesperides said to be nearby.
Cap Spartel

Cape Spartel (or Cap Spartel) is a prominent headland located about 12 to 14 kilometers west of Tangier, Morocco.
