  • 4. Cabo Finisterre La Coruna
    Cape Finisterre is a rock-bound peninsula on the west coast of Galicia, Spain.In Roman times it was believed to be the end of the known world. The name Finisterre, like that of Finistère in France, derives from the Latin finis terrae, meaning end of the earth. It is sometimes said to be the westernmost point of the Iberian Peninsula. However, Cabo da Roca in Portugal is about 16.5 kilometres further west and thus the westernmost point of continental Europe. Even in Spain Cabo Touriñán is farther west. Monte Facho is the name of the mountain on Cape Finisterre, which has a peak that is 238 metres above sea level. A prominent lighthouse is at the top of Monte Facho. The seaside town of Fisterra is nearby. The Artabri were an ancient Gallaecian Celtic tribe that once inhabited the area.
