What to see in Melilla?

This old city is still home to remains from other periods of time, such as the canons, the fortified towers and bastions, and the Conventico Caves. And, if the heat is a little too much, you can take a stroll to the Ensenada de los Galápagos beach and cool off in the water.

When you’ve finished your tour of the historical part of the city, continue on to the city centre to explore other points of interest such as Hernández Park, La Mezquita bullring, or the Square of Four Cultures. If you have chosen to board the ferry to Melilla in your own car, you’ll be able to travel to wonderful places such as the fort of Rostrogordo, just 15 minutes from the centre of Melilla.
