    Hiking

    At the top of the cliff that embraces Lagosteiros beach, a piece of prehistory stands the test of time: the Lagosteiros Natural Monument. Traces left by dinosaurs over 130 million years ago can still be seen imprinted in the yellowish limestone.

    Among the various fossilized trails, one stands out, measuring an impressive 50 meters long, a true trace of the past, engraved in stone.
