Antequera, the crossroads of Andalusia – a crossroads that many people skip. The impressive rock formations of Torcal de Antequera do attract visitors, but most people quickly move on after seeing them. What a shame! Because the town of Antequera has so much more to offer. Visit the Moorish fort, the wolves of Antequera, or the Spanish dolmens: Dólmenes de Antequera.
Erice is a remarkable town. It’s located right next to Trapani in western Sicily, on top of Mount San Giuliano. At the summit, you’re standing at 2,460 feet (750 meters) above sea level, which promises (and delivers!) breathtaking views. Erice is cozy, sometimes fairytale-like, and easy to explore on foot.
The famous Mirador de Es Vedra lookout point on Ibiza has permanently closed. It has fallen victim to the hordes of tourists who caused disturbances there. This means you can no longer access Atlantis either (though that was already difficult to reach).

It is actually incomprehensible that Cádiz in Spain is still so unknown. And well, maybe it should stay that way because then you have the best port city of Andalusia all to yourself. Enjoy the (often free) sights, the good restaurants, and especially the atmosphere: Spanish with Moorish influences and a touch of Cuban.
Vejer de la Frontera is one of the many white villages in Andalusia, but it is certainly not a twelve-in-a-dozen town. The center is nice and compact, and it feels like the clock is ticking a little slower here. Vejer de la Frontera is definitely worth a visit.
The Cadiz province is the sherry region of Spain. The drink is made and drunk here in abundance. Only sherry made in this region may bear the name sherry. So you should definitely try a sherry tour in the Cádiz and Jerez de la Frontera area, or at least visit a sherry bodega. And if you’re not into sherry, you can join a regular wine tasting too.
Málaga in Spain: fun (winter) sun destination or overrated tourist city? In this article, I’ll share my honest experience and give you a complete guide to all the attractions. The great thing is that if you plan it right, many highlights are entirely free to visit!
