Cádiz and the Surf
Surfing was born in Hawaii many years ago. The first document found was in the 16th century and reflected the ability of the Natives to glide through the waves, on wooden planks, to fish.

It is very simple:
Cádiz is the only city in the Iberian Peninsula (Spain and Portugal) and Islands where you can enjoy a sunrise and sunset over the Atlantic Ocean without leaving the city and without the need to use a car for it.
That is one of the advantages of the city being practically an island.
For security reasons and based on the recommendations of the Ministry of Health and ICTE for the prevention of contagion by SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus, the following measures are established for our tours and experiences:
In the province of Cádiz, enormous artists have been born who have been a national and Andalusian symbol:
Lola Flores, Rocío Jurado, Camarón de la Isla, Paco de Lucía…
Cádiz is full of Artists with capital letters. Poets who make music and compose when the heart asks.
During this Covid-19 pandemic, we have been confined in our homes without seeing our loved ones. However, art does not understand confinements or pandemics. If anything, it is inspired by them.
Cádiz, mother of one of the most beloved puppet in Spain “La Tía Norica” has a puppet museum, from the collection acquired by the Cádiz City Council from Ismael Peña in 2008.
It consists of more than 500 elements, among which are around 350 international puppets. To rediscover your childish side and to recreate yourself in history and cultures.
The sculptor from Cádiz who gave life to our protective Goddess Gades, lends his legacy of 150 works to us to enjoy. The artist’s family donated about 200 works to the city of Cádiz and now we can see them at Casa de Iberoamérica.
If you come to Cádiz, you can be the typical tourist or you can try mixing with the local people. There are options for everyone. All equally valid and in any case you will enjoy the city for sure.
But, just in case, if you want to experience the authentic day of a person “from Cádi, Cádi” (obviously, everything is not done in the same day), here is a list of things we do. If you do them all, you have earned the Gaditana / o ID Card.
