Tarifa, My Highlights

By Catswalks
1. Beaches-Beautiful fine sand beaches.  I love it when my bare feet sink in the sand. My favorite is the Valdevaqueros and Bolonia Beaches.

2. Tapas-  Andalucia is said to be the origin of tapas.  We did get great tapas in Tarifa.  My favorite place in town is Bar Frances.

 3. Windsurfing- Before Tarifa became a kitesurfing mecca, it was a windsurfing one first.
