  • Was quite windy and rainy when we visited but nonetheless.. it was visually stunning. Go there when it's sunny. Pictures say it all.
  • It is a must see place though I did not see the rock properly and did not have time to go and play with those amazing funny but also a bit disturbing monkeys. The rock went on and off hiding in clouds and emerging again like playing a game with me beckoning me to come again. And I surely will. It is worth it. And it is so very British there at the very south of my beloved Spain. Also very impressive views are there not only from the famous lighthouse. If you are lucky enough, you can see the Africa which for me has remained misteriously shrouded in fog. You can sit at a bench watching birds breath the breeze and just be.
