Highlights: Local legend speaks of pirates who once used hidden coves for smuggling, adding a mysterious edge to the rugged coastline. Visitors often pause at the pair of golf holes perched on the cliff, combining sport with breathtaking ocean vistas.
Insidertipps
- Wear sturdy walking shoes as trails can be uneven and slippery near the edges.

- Snap photos from the viewpoint near the old lighthouse for the most dramatic cliff shots.
- Avoid weekends if possible to enjoy quieter paths and less crowded golf tees.
