About Seville (Cadiz)

Ships dock at Cádiz, one of the oldest cities in Western Europe — a sea-wrapped old town of golden domes and tapas bars — but the day's big draw is often Seville, an hour and a half inland. Seville delivers Andalusia at full volume: the vast Gothic cathedral and Giralda, the Mudéjar Alcázar palace, flamenco, and the orange-scented lanes of Santa Cruz. Cádiz itself rewards anyone who'd rather stay by the sea.

Insider Tip

Seville is spectacular but it's a 1.5-hour each-way trip, so an organized excursion or the fast train makes the most of the day. Prefer a relaxed port? Cádiz's old town is gorgeous, walkable, and right at the ship.

Highlights
Seville Cathedral & Giralda
The largest Gothic cathedral in the world, with Columbus's tomb and the climbable Giralda bell tower (a former minaret).
🏯
Real Alcázar of Seville
A breathtaking Mudéjar royal palace of tiled courtyards and gardens — a Game of Thrones filming location.
🟡
Cádiz old town
A compact, salt-washed maze of plazas, a golden cathedral, and the oldest streets in the country, all wrapped by the sea.
💃
Flamenco & Triana
Seville is a heartland of flamenco; the Triana district across the river is its gritty birthplace.
🍷
Jerez & sherry
Nearby Jerez de la Frontera is the home of sherry and Andalusian horses, a popular alternative excursion.
Local Food & Drink
  • Pescaíto frito — Cádiz-style fried fish in a paper cone.
  • Tortillitas de camarones — crisp shrimp fritters.
  • Andalusian tapas — salmorejo, jamón ibérico, and espinacas con garbanzos.
  • A copa of fino or manzanilla sherry.
