One thought on “Price examples from Tarifa, Spain

  1. Hey Rogier,

    I will send your mail to some apartment contacts I have in Tarifa. Maybe you can find something on http://www.livingtarifa.com also or through Google, but it will definitely be overpriced. My best tip for apartments there is to Couchsurf or stay at a hostel the first days, or even tent if the weather allows it. Then just walk the streets and ask in restaurants, cafes, everywhere. The town is small and you will find something cheap and central this way very fast, specially during low season like now. If you don’t speak Spanish just Google translate a short sentence and show the people.

    Good luck and enjoy Tarifa!
