Surf the Straits!

(internal wave packet in the Straits of Gibraltar imaged with radar; Ceuta is on the peninsula projecting westward; I'm guessing that Jebel Musa is on the coast that runs parallel to the Straits)

Nice photo's.

I think most people think Gib is right at the point, but it's back a little bit, and shares the harbor with the Spanish - that caused problems in WWII since Spain was a (nominal) German ally.

Close enough for its guns to close the Straits.
