Located at a very interesting point in the city: the mouth of the Douro River, this old lighthouse (built in 1886) has a typical and traditional lighthouse design, but what is most striking is when you are on the pier and the sea waves break on the nearby rocks, providing a refreshing dip for those nearby. Caution should be exercised, as while it is beautiful, it can also be very dangerous.
