O Semáforo de Fisterra


Possibly Spain's most spectacularly located hotel, the former lighthouse-keepers' residence on Cabo Fisterra is a very comfortable seven-room lodging with bright, up-to-date rooms. The good restaurant and cafe prepare traditional Galician dishes from local fish and seafood. The views (when not obscured by rain or fog) are unbeatable.
