Where should I take the crew on vacation?

It's July 1940. Our little VIIB (U-48) has been working overtime the past 10 months, with over 200K on the books.

But the crew is getting jaded.

We got banged up by an ASW trawler (yeah, don't start me) on the way down to Gibraltar. Patched up in Cadiz, then.. of all things... got banged up by a Swordfish biplane. Oh, and then bungled a perfect setup on Hood and an Illustrious...4 torps wasted.

So now we are patched up again, fully loaded and fueled, sitting in Cadiz and I was thinking a little African or Caribbean holiday? Where does a merchant hungry skipper go on holiday in July 1940?
