Our journey along the Galician coast took us to Fisterra, the legendary “end of the world.” Arriving with the motorhome, Zuky and I felt the unique atmosphere of this place where the land ends in the Atlantic.

We decided to stay overnight – and it was the right decision. The evening by the ocean was unforgettable: the sunset painted the sky in vivid colours while the waves crashed against the rocks. For Zuky it was exciting, for me a moment of peace.

The next morning we walked up to the Fisterra lighthouse, standing proudly above the cliffs. From there, the view stretches endlessly over the ocean – as if at the very edge of the world. Zuky stayed close, and together we enjoyed the silence.

Fisterra is not about bustle but about simplicity and the power of the ocean. Once again, I realised how valuable life on the Costa Blanca is: from there, one can easily reach both the Mediterranean and the Atlantic.
