About
Snabba fakta: Perched on a rugged headland, a classic white tower sends a steady beam that has guided ships around jagged reefs and restless currents. Salt-laden winds and spray sculpt the black volcanic rock into dramatic ridges and gullies, so every path to the top feels like hiking through a living sculpture.
Höjdpunkter: Climb the narrow spiral staircase for a 360-degree panorama where sunrise paints the horizon in molten gold and the sea's spray tastes sharp and metallic on your lips. Clear nights reveal the Milky Way as a ribbon of light so bright you can trace constellations with your finger, while warm lanterns at the base attract swallows and small fishing boats that glitter like pinned stars.
Insider tips
- Wear sturdy shoes for uneven gravel paths and cliff-top rocks.
- Bring water, sun protection, and a windproof jacket because coastal winds can be strong.
- Arrive before sunrise or about an hour before sunset for the best light and fewer visitors.
- Park at the municipal lot and expect a short walk; avoid visiting during heavy rain when access roads become slippery.
