Cape Roca is the westernmost point of the European continent, a steep cliff rising 140 meters above the ocean.
Here the Atlantic Ocean meets the land and its rocky and deserted shores are born in the battle of the elements. Cabo da Roca is a place of power, here you feel the power of the elements, you feel the salty wind in your face and you hear the intoxicating sound of the ocean, the swift waves of which break on sharp coastal stones.
On the rock of Cabo da Roca there is a lighthouse still operating, a stone stele with a cross and the words of the Portuguese poet Luis Camõ es: "This is the place where the earth ends and the sea begins. " In addition, there is a small restaurant with great views and a gift shop. For everyone at the local tourist office, you can buy and send a postcard or issue a certificate (its cost is 11 euros), which confirms your visit and stay in this amazing place.
It can often get pretty windy here (bring a windbreaker or something warm) but when the weather is nice, it's incredibly beautiful. And finally, do not forget to be careful not to go beyond the fence when photographing Cabo da Roca (especially selfies), because if you are carried away by this, you can fall off its steep and high cliffs.
Cape Destiny is a place where every self-respecting traveler should visit.
