Cabo da Roca Travel Guide: 71 reviews and 436 photos
Cabo da Roca is the westernmost point of both mainland Europe and Portugal, and a touristic pilgrimage destination.
All the forums will tell you not to miss this spot, and I agree with them, despite the hairpin bends leading to the Cabo.
Once there, expect a lot of wind, a lot of tourists, and a breathless point of view on the Portuguese coast: rocky cliffs shaped by the ocean wind, unique flora, and a magic atmosphere that makes you feel alone even when you are in the middle of a touristic crowd.
Go there, go West!
- Pros:Atmosphere, panorama
- Cons:Hairpin bends
- In a nutshell:Don't miss it!
