If it's mainland you are after, Spain wins. According to my atlas, Tarifa, just to the west of Gib. is bang on 36degrees. Greece apparently has a lighthouse at Akrotirion Tainaron which is on approx 36degrees20minutes. Greece owns some islands, notably Crete and Rhodes which stretch south of 35 degrees, but I don't imagine you want to count them.
