    Cabo da Roca is the westernmost point of the Eurasian continent. For a long time there was only the ocean to the west and the Portuguese knew how to control it.

    It's true that busloads of tourists are brought here during high season, but the place is still magical. There are many beautiful hiking trails all around that are not overcrowded.

    The lighthouse at Cabo da Roca was put into operation in 1772 (construction started in 1758), making it the third oldest lighthouse on the Portuguese coast.
    It has been modernized several times over the centuries.
    Its light has a range of almost 50 km 😊...
