Save the date, book a flight and take some extra time to check out the region of “La Janda” and the Cadiz province with it’s natural, authentic countryside and remote and wild beaches that stretch out from Cadiz City to Gibraltar and  a history that goes back to the Phonecians.

Cadiz gastronomy is healthy abundance :
Wild Tuna Fish is still fished in the sustainable, thousands of years old Almadraba method which was introduced by the Moors,the organic beef of the region “carne retinta” is exquisite and delicious, so are the wines from local family bodegas, native seafood and organic vegetables from small village farms.

Most probably this is the best spot in the South of Europe right now and magical setting for a very promising event.
