Finisterre hotels - About Finisterre
Cape Finisterre (Galician: Cabo Fisterra) is a rock-bound peninsula on the west coast of Galicia, Spain.
Cape Finisterre is sometimes said to be the westernmost point of Spain. However, this is not correct, since other locations in Spain are farther west. Cape Finisterre is located at 42°52′57″N 9°16′20″W / 42.8825, -9.27222. Cabo da Nave is about 5 kilometers northwest of Cape Finisterre, and is located at 42°55′18″N 9°17′53″W / 42.92167, -9.29806. Punta Laxial on Cape Touriñán is about 20 kilometers north, and is even farther west, since it is located at 43°02′54″N 9°18′00″W / 43.04833, -9.3. This part of Spain is also not the westernmost point of Continental Europe. That honour belongs to Cabo da Roca in Portugal, which is about 16.5 km farther west. The name of Cape Finisterre, like that of Finistère in France, derives from the Latin name Finisterrae, which literally means "Land's End".
Monte Facho is the name of the mountain on Cape Finisterre, which has a peak that is 238 meters above sea level. A prominent lighthouse is at the top of Monte Facho. The seaside town of Fisterra is nearby.
