In winter time there is no connection at all. the tourist info gave me the wrong info and as i was in the bus station to buy ticket to huelva, i was told bluntly there is no connection at all at this period of time. I was lucky that at the Caracol hostel, they still had a bed available for me for the night. the day after i had to go back to Sevilla and then go directly to Faro and forget completely about Huelva.close

Cadiz on it\'s peninsula is interesting for a one time visit - not for more. Getting around you should imagine word by word. There is one bigger road around the old city - that\'s it. Only there busses. But easy to walk in the inner city. Gateway for the ferry to the Canary Islands....more Cadiz on it\'s peninsula is interesting for a one time visit - not for more.

The wind makes you feel like you're in the sahara. be prepared to have sand in every...more Cadiz is a WEIRD place. Lots of character.

It was very low key town in the winter when I visited. Only a few streets with shops and restaurants, the beaches empty.

If you like avoiding the crowds and places crawling with tourists, Cadiz is for you in the winter. The weathert was perfect and the sunset breathetaking. Go to San Francisco square on Saturday night and watch locals drink and converse, its a unique experience. It also helps if you know Spanish. Of all the Andalucian places I visited, Cadiz had the lowest rate of English speakers.close
