SPAIN: VEJER AND CAÑOS DE MECA BEACH IN CADIZ

After going to Gibraltar, always a bit crowded, we visited Vejer de la Frontera: a lovely white village full of arab influences where we could get a feeling of peace. As soon as we had lunch in a great restaurant called El Jardin del Califa, we went to Los Caños de Meca. There we enjoyed a quite virgin beach.
