Mañón
Home to Estaca de Bares, the northernmost point of the Iberian Peninsula.
Mañón holds two extremes: Estaca de Bares, the north's own land's end, and the port of Bares, a cove of low houses and small boats. Between them, a coast of cliffs and wind.
The headland is a major migratory bird crossing and a birdwatching destination. The lighthouse and the old observatory complete a landscape that feels like the end of the world.
Getting there
