Alcaidesa Marina (Alcaidesa Marina)
Visiting by boat
Alcaidesa Marina sits right where the Atlantic meets the Mediterranean in the Strait of Gibraltar, putting you in one of the most historically charged stretches of water on the planet. It's a modern, well-kept marina with a calm, unhurried atmosphere that's a bit of a contrast to the drama of the location — Gibraltar's Rock looms nearby and is just a 20-minute walk away. The Bay of Algeciras wraps around you, and Morocco is visible on clear days across the strait.
