Explora los sabores auténticos de Ceuta en una experiencia gastronómica inolvidable.
Ceuta is a unique Spanish city, embraced by the sea on the northern coast of Africa and watched over by the mythical column of Hercules of Monte Hacho. Its strategic position in the Strait of Gibraltar, where the Atlantic and the Mediterranean meet, has marked its history as a stronghold and melting pot of civilizations. Its most impressive heritage is its **Royal Walls**, a monumental complex with a saltwater moat that is the only navigable one in the world and that turns the heart of the city into an island. Ceuta is a mosaic where Christian, Muslim, Hebrew and Hindu cultures coexist in harmony, reflected in its daily life and its Temple Route. Visiting Ceuta is discovering an impregnable fortress, enjoying a mild microclimate all year round and feeling the pulse of a city that is a natural bridge between Europe and Africa.

The gastronomy of Ceuta is, above all, seafood. The exceptional quality of the fish and seafood from the Strait is the basis of a cuisine with strong Andalusian influences and touches of Moroccan cuisine.
The absolute star. Try the 'almadraba tuna', the 'urta a la roteña', the 'gallineta' or the 'voraz'. Seafood, such as prawns, prawns or thin shells, is of superior quality.
The most unique and popular tapa in Ceuta. Small chicken hearts skewered on a skewer, marinated and grilled. An unexpected delicacy.
A traditional dish. Open mackerels, covered in salt and roasted on a 'laña' (metal plate). They are served with a tomato and pepper salad.
Two comforting soups. The picadillo, of Andalusian influence, with chicken, ham and hard-boiled egg. The garlic 'mackerel' soup is stronger and a poached egg is usually added.
A tasty seafood stew, made with melva (a small tuna), potatoes, peppers and peas.
There is a great tradition of eating snails in season, which are sold at street stalls. They are prepared with a tasty broth and a spicy touch.
Similar to Melilla, mint tea is a deeply rooted social drink. Prepared in a traditional way, it is a symbol of hospitality and a pillar in the social life of the city.

Being a free port, in Ceuta you can find and enjoy wines from all regions of Spain, especially those from nearby Andalusia such as Sherry or red wines from Cádiz, at competitive prices.

Ceuta, like Melilla, is a free port, which offers advantages in some purchases. It is accessed from the peninsula by ferry (from Algeciras, a very short journey of approximately one hour) or by helicopter. The wind from the Strait (East or West) can be very strong and sometimes conditions maritime connections. It is essential to always carry documentation (ID or passport).
