    Cape St. Vincent (Cabo de São Vicente) offers spectacular views of the lighthouse, the sheer 75-meter-high cliffs, and the vast Atlantic Ocean. It's a popular spot for sunsets, nature photography, and birdwatching. You can combine it with a hike from the nearby Beliche Fort. The site is near Sagres, in southwestern Portugal.

      Located on the southwestern tip of Portugal, Cape São Vicente offers breathtaking views of the endless Atlantic Ocean. Here, steep cliffs meet the rough seas, and the spectacular scenery conveys a sense of untamed nature and freedom. In clear weather, the cliffs offer views far out to sea as the crashing waves crash against the rocks. The historic lighthouse on the cape, one of the brightest in Europe, adds a touch of maritime history to the scene. This view is a must for anyone wanting to experience the wild beauty of the Algarve coast.
