El Peñón de Vélez de la Gomera

This tiny island was transformed into a peninsula in the 1930s and ’40s when a sandbank joined it with the mainland. Despite several Moroccan attempts at retaking Peñón de Vélez de la Gomera, it has remained under Spanish control since 1563 and serves solely as a military base.
