To orient yourself, walk up and enjoy the panoramic view from El Faro, the famous lighthouse on the point at the south end of town. It's the second-highest lighthouse in the world (only Gibraltar's is higher), towering 135m (447 ft.) over the harbor. Begin at the end of Paseo Centenario, near the sportfishing docks. There's a refreshment stand at the foot of the hill. Allow about 45 minutes for the climb. The view is nearly as spectacular from the top of Cerro del Vigía (Lookout Hill), which is accessible by car from Paseo Olas Altas.
