The island is vanishing, but the reason why depends on who you ask. The fact remains: It could become uninhabitable in as little as 25 years.
In a five-part podcast series, WTOP reporter Michelle Basch travels to Tangier to meet the people who call it home and find out what’s really happening.
The gallery below shows Tangier at a visitor’s glance: how to get there, where to stay and what you may see as a tourist.
