Dusty tracks open like a well-used map as the Land Rover climbs away from the coast; olive groves and cork oaks lean in, the wind pushing scents of herbs and sun-warmed earth toward you. On this half-day jeep safari you trade beach crowds for narrow whitewashed lanes, cliff-side viewpoints, and hidden springs that dare you to strip down and wade in.
