A port town at the mouth of the Guadalquivir River in the province of Cadiz in the Andalusia region of southern Spain. Population 47,558 (1979). Although surrounded by sand, the town has an abundance of water even in the hot summers thanks to irrigation facilities that use groundwater, and is famous for its white grape wine called Manzanilla. The town dates back to Roman times and was recaptured from Muslim hands by Alfonso X in 1256. It was from this port that Columbus set sail on his third expedition to America in 1498, and Magellan set sail on his round-the-world voyage on September 20, 1519.
