The famous mathematician Jorge Mira made the calculations to determine exactly where the last ray of sunlight is seen in the old continent. Do you know where this place is located?
If you have said Costa da Morte you have been right since this point is located at the top of Mount Pindo in the municipality of Carnota, a mountain with a summit at 627 meters high and whose foot is less than a kilometer from the sea.
According to the mathematician from Baio, the proximity to the ocean and the height of Mount Pindus allow you to see a horizon farther away in the Atlantic, so you can see a sunset a few minutes later at this point and somewhere further into the ocean than anywhere in continental Europe.
