    Spectacular viewpoint that provides a unique view of the coast. From here you can see the cliffs as far as Mosteiros. It was an observation point for whale hunting in the past. Today it is still possible to see them, with luck and suitable conditions.

    Former Wale Look-Out. Very good views across the coast to Mosteiros.
