    Here you can enjoy spectacular views of the Atlantic Ocean and the cliffs surrounding the cape. It's undoubtedly a 15th-century gem.

      Great spot along EV1.

        The wind is blowing hard against us. We're barely making any headway. The wind only allows low, meager vegetation on a wafer-thin layer of earth, which is blown away again and again. In front of us lies the Cabo de Sao Vicente like a table. A mighty, absolutely flat rock plateau - as if cut off, 60 steep meters above the roaring Atlantic. According to ancient legends, the mighty gods lay down to sleep right here. The seabed drops off just as steeply and abruptly off the coast. Depths of 1000 to 4000m are quickly reached.
