Algeciras

Algeciras is a port city in the south of Spain and is the largest urban area on the bay of Gibraltar. In the port area there are many Moroccans in transit, as a result there is a strong Arab influence. In the backstreets, you can find several traditional tea shops which specialize in traditional Moroccan mint tea. There are many reasonably priced restaurants to try - several with terrific views of the nearby Rock of Gibraltar. Those that find the time to wander will fine quiet parks and tree lined plazas almost hidden away from the rushing travelers.
