Cape Scapes — Hikes, Beaches & Bohemian Waves

View Spain's golden beaches on a coastal hike, then soak up the serene scene of historic Cape Trafalgar.

Get that Vitamin Sea on the serene scene of the coast. About 1 hour south of Cádiz, passing whitewashed facades of the countryside, you’ll arrive in the old fishing village of Barbate for a glorious coastal hike of La Breña. Take in the natural beauty (plus a number of stunning pics) at the Torre de Tajo, a 16th-century tower on a 300+ ft. cliff. Your day includes a visit to Cape Trafalgar (known for its historic naval battle) and time to check out the bohemian village of Los Caños de Meca.

Shore Things are fully refundable to the original form of payment. However, please note that Shore Things are only fully refundable if they are canceled within 48 hours prior to the booked Shore Thing taking place, unless stated otherwise in a specific Shore Thing 'Need to Know' section. If you fail to either (a) cancel within 48 hours of the booked Shore Thing (or alternative time period as may be stated in a specific Shore Thing 'Need to Know' section), or (b) show up for a booked Shore Thing, you will be charged for 100% of the Shore Thing price.

If you make a cancellation prior to the first day of your voyage and within 48 hours (unless otherwise stated in the tour details) of your Shore Thing, you will be refunded to the original form of payment after midnight Eastern Standard Time (EST) on the day of cancellation.

If you make another purchase prior to midnight EST, after canceling a booking eligible for a refund, the credit from the canceled booking will be applied to your new booking. Therefore, you’ll only be charged for the price difference between the canceled and new experience. If you have remaining temporary credit left on your account after you’ve made another experience purchase, the remaining credit will be refunded to your original form of payment after midnight EST.

If you cancel a Shore Thing during your voyage and are eligible for a refund, a credit will be applied to your folio and not to your original form of payment.

Shore Things departure times and/or meeting locations are subject to change. We will make every effort to notify Sailors in advance via the Sailor App of any tour departure and/or meeting changes.
