Straight of Gibraltar.
This image was captured on a very misty morning in September 2006 and shows the Rock of Gibraltar in the far distance. Just visible on the horizon is the Europa Point Lighthouse which is said to be the most Southerly point in Europe. The Oil Tanker in the image is the 30053 Gross Ton Afrodite that came into service in 2005. Afrodite which is still operational (May 2022) is seen heading West towards the Atlantic Ocean.
