Badis (town) in the context of Peñón de Vélez de la Gomera

Peñón de Vélez de la Gomera (Spanish pronunciation: [peˈɲon de ˈβeleθ ðe la ɣoˈmeɾa]), also known as Hajar Badis (Arabic: حجر بديس, romanizedHajar Badis), is a Spanish exclave and rocky tidal island in the western Mediterranean Sea. It is connected to the Moroccan shore by a sandy isthmus, and to a smaller islet to the east, La Isleta, by a rocky isthmus. The tidal island was historically named Hajar Badis (Rock of Badis), referring to its proximity to the town of Badis.

Vélez de la Gomera, along with La Isleta, is a historic overseas possession known as a plaza de soberanía. It is administered by the Spanish central government and has a population consisting only of a small number of Spanish military personnel.
