Architecture enthusiasts will recognize the Casa de Cha da Boa Nova, a tea house designed by Alvaro Siza Vieira in the 1960s and now a two-Michelin-star restaurant -- one of his earliest completed works, built into the granite coastline with the Atlantic crashing beneath it.
Passing the lighthouse, keep your gaze to the left, where you can enjoy a sea view far superior to the oil refinery to your right. Between here and the Obelisk you will follow off and on a walkway, passing several food options.

We stayed at Love Sea apartments right across from the beach to begin our walk. The accommodations were extremely clean and comfortable. Fernanda is an excellent host. She provided a shuttle from the airport as well. It’s located just south of the huge lighthouse.

We stayed in Cabo do mundo to break up the walk from Porto to Vila de Condo. Not many food options but low cost room and right on the camino.
