A 16th‑century star-shaped coastal fortress where red sandstone walls meet the Atlantic — ideal for dramatic seascapes, architectural details and historical context. Best at sunrise or sunset for warm side-light and silhouettes; mornings and weekdays are least crowded. Easy street access, small entry fee, limited on‑site parking; wear sun protection and expect ocean spray.
