Punta de Estaca de Bares

Punta da Estaca de Bares is the northernmost point of Spain and the Iberian Peninsula, at a latitude of 43° 47′ 38″ North [1]. It is located in Galicia [1]. The peninsula of Estaca de Bares penetrates considerably into the Cantabrian Sea, and as a result it is one of the rainiest places in Europe, with more than 2500 mm a year [1]. These special weather conditions have created over the centuries a unique ecosystem and biodiversity which have made it possible for this area to be declared an Area of National Natural Interest [1]. The ruins of the Phoenician Salt Fish Factory and the Phoenician Port are open to visitors [1].
