Esther's Guidebook

Parking in downtown Cadiz can be a challenge, I highly recommend cycling to the town centre or taking the bus number 1 (€1,10 per ticket/ cash no cards) which is 2 minutes from the flat. You can also walk to the old city: 40 minutes from home! If you wish to go to other towns nearby (e.g. Puerto de Santa Maria, San Fernando or Jerez), there is a train station near Carranza football stadium, 7 minutes from home.

Cadiz has an important historical legacy, not only for its trading links with America, but also political influence in the past. Cadiz is one of the few cities we can say locals know each other, people are friendly, they are always laughing and looking to the positive side of life, and ready to help you anytime! In all honesty I think it’s the only city that can make me smile, it might be because I’m abroad that I truly appreciate the friendly attitude and the good vibes this city transmit. Enjoy!

This city is for walking, so make yourself comfortable! Although you are in the south of Spain, it can get a bit chilly as it’s next to the sea. Bring a light jacket for summer nights, you won’t regret it. At the apartment we provide you with bath towels, but not beach towels. Bring your own beach towel if you wish to go for a dive in the sea (as you will!).
