Cape Roca is a cape on a cliff at the westernmost tip of the European continent, a majestic place that seems to drop off into the Atlantic Ocean. The inscription on the stone with the words “Here the land ends and the sea begins” (Onde a terra acaba e o mar começa) is the symbol of this place and a phrase that remains in the hearts of visitors.
Strong winds, crashing waves, and an endless horizon.
Cape Roca is more than just a landscape. It may be just a dot on the map, but when you stand here, you feel like you’ve reached the end of the world.
