Over
Korte feiten: Met een hoogte van 140 meter markeert deze door de wind geteisterde klif het meest westelijke punt van continentaal Europa. Meer dan 300.000 mensen bezoeken het jaarlijks en kunnen een officieel certificaat meenemen dat bewijst dat ze aan de rand van het continent hebben gestaan.
Hoogtepunten: Op een heldere dag kun je de zon rechtstreeks in de Atlantische Oceaan zien zakken zonder enig land tussen jou en de horizon. De Portugese dichter Luís de Camões legde dit gevoel perfect vast en noemde Cabo da Roca de plek "waar het land eindigt en de zee begint."
Insidertips
- Layer up even on sunny days, the wind here can knock you sideways and temperatures drop fast.
- Skip the overpriced cafe and bring your own snacks to enjoy on the clifftop benches instead.
- Visit the monument and certificate office first, then walk 100 meters north for a quieter view without the crowd.
- Take the 403 bus from Sintra or Cascais it drops you right at the entrance and runs every 30-60 minutes.
