A must-see place when visiting Tangier. The view is breathtaking (better to go when there's a bit of sun though) We visited the museum, the lighthouse and the botanical garden. It was very informative. We sat on the terrace for cocktails and crepes: it was very good and very relaxing.

Un lieu incontournable lorsque l’on visite Tanger. La vue est à couper le souffle (mieux vaut y aller lorsqu’il y a un peu de soleil par contre) Nous avons visité le musée, le phare et le jardin botanique. C’était très instructif.

À 15 minutes en voiture de Tanger, ce site vaut vraiment le coup très belle vue entre océan et mer Méditerranée
Stunning view, well maintained place (which put some sense to the entrance price still quite high), the gardens are green and the plants well trimmed which adds aesthetic charm to the historical charm.

Vue imprenable, endroit bien entretenu (ce qui a mis du sens au prix d'entrée quand même assez élevé), les jardins sont verdoyants et les plantes bien taillées ce qui rajoute du charme esthétique au charme historique.
Cap Spartel is a magnificent place to rest in an exceptional setting. Complete visit of the small museum, of the lighthouse the view from the top after climbing the 100 steps was splendid. The botanical garden where you can eat and quench your thirst after the visit.

Le cap Spartel est un endroit magnifique pour se reposer dans un cadre exceptionnel. Visite complète du petit musée, du phare la vue d'en haut après avoir monté les 100 marches était splendide. Le jardin botanique où l'on peux manger et se désaltérer après la visite.
This excursion was really magnificent. The café located inside offers a very pleasant setting where you can relax whilst enjoying a warm atmosphere. Everything is impeccably clean, which contributes to making the experience even more pleasant.
