Highlights in Cabo da Roca:
The lighthouse, the landscape, the chance of being one more saying, “I was there”, and the possibility of obtaining a diploma confirming the visit (paid but cheap).
Visiting Cabo da Roca top point
Cabo da Roca is a wild area by the sea, with a lighthouse and lots of people around, no matter the time of the year and the weather.
The curiosity of having been to the westernmost point of Europe is the draw, which attracts many Portuguese and also foreigners visiting Lisbon or Sintra, and with time for that small detour.
The views over the sea are wide, and the passage through the place can be registered in a personalized diploma, at the visit center attached to the lighthouse.
Leaving from Lisbon, it is a tour that is normally associated with a visit to Sintra, when you have the time and means of transport, as the lighthouse is approximately 18 km from the city. As there is no reasonable beach nearby, the visit is generally very brief.
