� DESCRIPTION In this section we again head towards the Atlantic which comes to play a principal role in the landscape. The route passes through the pine woods surrounding the the luxury hotels and residences of Novo Sancti Petri, Torre del Puerco and Roche. From here the route runs along the edge of spectacular cliffs dotted with small coves. If the weather is good, The beaches in this area are well worth a stop and a dip in the sea. From the lighthouse at Cabo Roche we can make out out below us the port of Conil and further to the the south east the Cabo de Trafalgar (Cape of Trafalgar). After a short descent to the eastern entrance of the small harbour, we continue along the clifftops after riding by along the Cala de Aceite. This coastline saw one of the most important episodes of naval history, the Battle of Trafalgar (which really took place closer to the Cabo Roche than the cape that gave its name to the battle). Travellers who pass through here between April and July will be able to see in action the almadraba - an ancient technique of fishing, using a system of fixed nets, that has marked the character and economy of the villages of the area. In spring, it is not at all uncommon to see Orca (Killer) whales near the beach at dusk. We arrive at Conil via the beaches of the Fuente del Gollo and La Fontanilla. To pass through the village it is best to take the streets closest to the coast (not always easy at times as hotels and houses block the path at various points, obliging short detours) before finally coming out at the paseo marítimo at the Playa de los Bateles. Note: the total distance given for this stage includes the 4.1 kms (at least) running from the entrance to Conil to the point where we leave the village on the dirt road towards Barbate. The percentages of asphalt and path only take into account the first 19.3 kms of the stage - the route through the village depend on the choice of the cyclotourist. Although we recommend using the paseo marítimo, travelling through u village’s white, steep and narrow streets would also be an excellent choice.
