It is genuinely the best sunset spot on the island, and the walk down the headland past the viewpoint gets you away from the coach park.
How to visit it well
- Arrive 45 minutes before sunset for a parking space.
- Walk past the main viewpoint toward the cape for fewer people.
- The lighthouse museum is free and air-conditioned.
