Hercules Cave’s Beach
The best thing about this beach isn’t the white sand or palm trees, but a cave located just near it. This cave gives the name for the beach, which is known as the Hercules Cave’s Beach. According to traditional legends and myths, the Greek hero Hercules rested in this Cave, thousands years ago, while doing one of his famous 12 labors. Just this simple fact (or myth?) makes the beach – and its cave – one of the most important touristic attractions in Tangier, a place where children and adults just love to visit. This famous Cave, although small, has another attractive point: it’s one of the most unusual caves you can find in world, as it is possible to see Africa’s silhouette at the cave’s entrance.
The beach is clean and the water a little bit cold, but this isn’t a problem for any of the thousands of tourists that arrive there during seasons and holidays. If you get to Hercules’ Cave you should spend some hours relaxing on its beach.
