there is a wide passage used by ships entering the harbour.
Aspect. In approaching Cádiz in clear weather the mountains of Cabezo del Moro, Aljibe, and Medina Sidonia will probably be the first land seen.
Cabezo del Moro, 1650 m (5413 ft) high, is the highest part of the Sierra de Ronda, and appears rounded; it lies ENE of Castillo de San Sebastián.
Pico del Aljibe, 1090 m (3576 ft) high, lies about 33 miles E of Castillo de San Sebastián; the land slopes gradually from its summit.
Medina Sidonia, 337 m (1106 ft) high, has the shape of a sugar loaf, and is situated about 20 miles ESE of Castillo de San Sebastián. See view 3. There is a tower close to its summit, which is visible from the bar. The town of the same name lies on its W slope and appears as a white patch.
Berrueco Grande (36°27'N, 6°03'W) is a whitish isolated mountain situated about 14 miles SE of Castillo de San Sebastián; it is 175 m (570 ft) high, and can be identified by its two summits, on one of which there is a white building. Berrueco Chico is a mountain of less elevation but more pointed S of Berrueco Grande.
Rising from a low plain 4 miles NE of Puerto de Santa María is a range of hills known as Sierra de San Cristóbal which terminates SE in a precipice 126 m high, known as Morro de Jerez.
For conspicuous objects in the city of Cádiz see below.
Northern approach

Between Punta del Perro (36°44'N, 6°27'W), and Punta Candor, 6 miles SSE, the coast is low and backed by sand dunes.
Between Punta Camarón, which lies 1 mile S of Punta del Perro, and Punta Peginas, a low point 2 miles farther SSE, reefs which dry, extend 4 miles offshore.
A measured distance of 2988.75 m (9708 ft) has been established 1 to 2 miles NW of Punta Candor. The ends are marked by pairs of beacons each consisting of a truncated stone pyramid with a red stripe down its centre. The front beacons are 6 m, the N rear beacon 13 m, and the S rear beacon 14 m in height. The running line bears 160°/340°. These beacons should not be confused with four other beacons marking a fishery in the vicinity.
An area where anchoring and fishing is prohibited, owing to submarine cables, extends 1.2 miles W, with a width of 2.4 miles, from the vicinity of the beacons marking the northern side of the measured distance.
Punta Candor (36°38'N, 6°24'W) is flat and sandy and fringed by drying reefs which extend ½ mile offshore. Two conspicuous towers stand on the point. A radiobeacon transmits from a position ¾ mile SE of Punta Candor.
Depths off the coast between Punta del Perro and Punta Candor are very uneven and depths of less than 10 m extend up to 1½ miles offshore; this coast should not be approached within 2½ miles or within depths of less than 20 m.
Bajos Lainez, with a depth of 7.1 m over them, lie from 1 to 1½ miles W of Punta Candor.
Bajo Gallardo, a rock with two 10 m heads, lies 1½ miles WSW of Punta Candor. Bajo Bonhome, an 8.7 m patch over which the sea breaks in heavy weather, and Bajo El Quemado, 9.2 m patch, lie 1½ miles SW and 2¼ miles S, respectively of the same point. Bajo El Quemado is marked on its SW side by a light-buoy.
An extensive rocky shelf on which there are numerous heads, some awash, lies off the coast between Punta Candor and Rota, 1½ miles SE; its S extremity, known as Cabezo de los Asnos, lies 2 miles SSE of Punta Candor.
Arrival information
5.69
Merchant ships bound for Rota Naval Base (see below), or for Cádiz (36°32'N, 6°18'W) with cargo for the said base, must inform the base of their estimated time of arrival, by radio, 72 hours prior to arrival, stating the nature and quantity of cargo carried.
The estimated time of arrival must be either confirmed or amended by a priority message sent 24 hours before the time originally quoted. If the estimated time of arrival needs further amendment by more than 4 hours a further message giving a new estimated time of arrival must be sent.
Ships must endeavour to establish contact with Rota control by radiotelephone 6 hours prior to arrival.
For further details see Admiralty List of Radio Signals.

Coastal features
5.70
Rota (36°37'N, 6°22'W) stands on a projection of the coast forming the N entrance point of Bahia de Cádiz. A mole extends 2½ cables ESE from the S end of the town and protects a small basin much frequented by fishing vessels.
Rota Light is exhibited from a round tower, painted white with a red band, 28 m in height, situated close N of the root of the mole.
An aero light is exhibited from a red and white chequered spherical water tank on 9 columns, 49 m in height, situated 1½ miles NNE of the head of Rota Mole. Red obstruction lights are exhibited from the water tank and buildings and masts in its vicinity.
A light is exhibited from a truncated conical masonry tower, 34 m in height, on the head of the mole at Rota.
Bajo de las Cabezuelas, an extensive shoal, with minimum depth of 5.3 m over it, lies 1½ miles SE of Rota Mole and is marked on its SE side by a light-buoy. Numerous shoals lie between this bank and the coast N of it. In 1978, works were in progress N of the light-buoy.
Between Rota and the naval base, 1½ miles ENE, the coast consists of a sandy beach which dries up to 2½ cables offshore, and is backed by a chain of small white cliffs.
Rota Naval Base (36°37'N, 6°19'W) and seaplane harbour, which in 1971 was on lease to the United States Navy, is enclosed by two breakwaters. A light is exhibited from an aluminium column at the head of each breakwater. Leading lights at the head of the harbour, in line bearing 345°, lead into it. A shoal with a depth of 2.6 m over it, projects a short distance N from the head of the W breakwater, reducing the navigable width of the entrance to 1½ cables
