1. Cape Trafalgar

   Cape Trafalgar (; Spanish: Cabo Trafalgar [ˈkaβo tɾafalˈɣaɾ]) is a headland in the Province of Cádiz in the southwest of Spain. The 1805 naval Battle of Trafalgar, in which the Royal Navy commanded by Admiral Horatio Nelson decisively defeated Napoleon's combined Spanish and French fleet, took place just off the cape. Cape Trafalgar lies on the shore of the Atlantic Ocean, northwest of the Strait of Gibraltar. The International Hydrographic Organization defines the western limit of the strait and the Mediterranean Sea as a line that joins Cape Trafalgar to the north with Cape Spartel to the south. The most prominent structure on the cape is a 34-metre-high (112 ft) lighthouse (totaling 51 metres or 167 feet above sea level), the faro de Cabo Trafalgar, which was first illuminated on 15 July 1862.

1. Cape Trafalgar

   Cape Trafalgar is a headland in the Province of Cádiz in the south-west of Spain. It lies on the shore of the Atlantic Ocean, northwest of the Strait of Gibraltar at 36°10'58"N, 6°2'2"W. The International Hydrographic Organization defines the Western limit of the strait as a line that joins Cape Trafalgar to the North to Cape Spartel to the South.. The name is of Arabic origin, with the modern pronunciation being a modification of 'Tarf al-Gharb' meaning 'Western Cape' or 'Cape of the West'. The Battle of Trafalgar, perhaps the most famous naval battle in history, in which the Royal Navy destroyed Napoleon's combined Spanish and French fleet, took place off the cape. There is a 34-metre-high lighthouse, faro de Cabo Trafalgar, built in 1860.
