View from coast to Tarifa and the Riff Mountains of Morocco


Tarifa is located on the southern most point of Europe, an attractive and laid back town with strong Moorish influences. The area is surrounded by beautiful and unique natural parks and vast stretches of untouched coastline renowned for its vistas of Africa. Tarifa is also a world famous kite/wind surfing location, with plenty of sun to enjoy the beach.

The two beach houses are located at either end of a one hectare plot situated within the Natural Park. The property, "El Cancho", spanish for rock outcrop, is named for the razor ridge outcrops that run through the property. This property provides a secluded and peaceful hideaways for those looking for a special place. There are spectacular views of both the Atlantic Ocean and Mediterranean sea, native pine forests, rock outcrops and Africa/Morocco. El Cancho lies directly under one of the most important bird migration routes between Africa and Europe. The beach houses are only 250 metres from the beach and 3 km from Tarifa town. Both houses are “green” producing electricity via solar panels and using spring water from the mountains above. Spring brings a wash of wild flowers across the property, while stretches of deserted beaches can be found even in the height of summer. If your lucky, you will hear the enchanting sounds of the goat bells and the herders still roam the natural park grazing.

El Cancho provides a wonderfully secluded hideaway yet with easy access to the beach and Tarifa.
