Portugal Farol Do Arnel
Farol do Arnel is, as far as I know, the easternmost light house on Sao Miguel. It is not incredibly high, but its location compensates for that with fantastic views.
Photography Tips
Ultra wide angle is needed to capture the whole building. Bring a tripod as it is best to come during sunset or sunrise.
Travel Information
5-10min drive from the Nordeste camping ground (so even less from the town's center.
Park your car in the main road parking area and walk to the lighthouse. Yes, the walk is very steep, too steep in fact for most cars. I have never seen a steeper road. I know that the locals even do it with shabby old cars, but they were probably properly taught and they don't drive rental cars.
