Very good views. When there are strong waves, there is a small blowhole inside the Ojerada.

The views are wonderful, although if the surface is wet you may have to enjoy them pushing your bike.

Beautiful views towards Antuerta beach and Cuberris beach behind. The path is very cool and runs along the top of the cliff.

It is well known that lighthouses provide wonderful views and the Ajo lighthouse is no exception to the rule. It is also very strikingly decorated which gives a very special touch to the coastal landscape with the sea in the background.

A very visited and busy site in the area. Some large caves formed by thousands of years of erosion and that today offers a very picturesque landscape worthy of a postcard.
