Cabo Carvoeiro and its lighthouse

Cabo Carvoeiro is a breathtaking promontory located on the rugged western coastline of Portugal, not far from the town of Peniche. Jutting out in to the Atlantic Ocean, it is as a sentinel of natural beauty and geological interest. The name “Cabo Carvoeiro “translates to “Coal Cape,” a reference to the dark, weathered cliffs that populate the area.

At the very tip of Cabo Carvoeiro stands a historic lighthouse, which has been a reference point  over these treacherous waters since the 19th century. Originally built to guide sailors and fisherman safely along the coast, it now functions as a picturesque landmark, offering visitors a glimpse into Portugal’s glorious maritime history.

For those seeking a more relaxing experience, the close by town of Peniche offers charming cafes and restaurants where visitors can savor fresh seafood and local delicacies while taking in views of Cabo Carvoeiro in the distance.

Visit Cabo Carvoeiro and stay for a few days of leisure at the Hedone property in nearby Praia Del Rey resort.
