This place left a lasting impression on us, being one of the first where we had the chance to admire such impressive cliffs. The strong wind and less than inviting weather did not encourage a walk to the stunning Ursa Beach<\/a><\/strong>, especially with a little one on our backs. Despite this, we didn't want to leave so soon and decided to spend the night at the viewpoint of Miradouro da Praia do Caneiro<\/a><\/strong>\u2026 Sleep was impossible as the lighthouse cast its beautiful light throughout the night\u2026 Morning coffee on the edge of the cliff was an unforgettable experience\u2026 Unfortunately, the weather turned, with wind and rain forcing us to continue our journey\u2026<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n
