     One of the oldest continuously inhabited cities in Western Europe, set on a narrow spit almost surrounded by the Atlantic in Spain's Andalusia. A gold-domed cathedral rises over the old town's tight lanes, sea walls and the long sands of La Caleta.

     Morocco's largest city and main port on the Atlantic coast, a mix of art-deco boulevards and Moorish design. The vast Hassan II Mosque rises beside the ocean, and the imperial city of Marrakech lies inland by road or rail.

      Italy's great maritime city, stacked up the Ligurian hills above one of the Mediterranean's busiest harbours. Its old town is a maze of tall, narrow caruggi, and it claims pesto and focaccia as local inventions; the Aquarium and Renaissance palaces of Via Garibaldi sit close to the port.
