Sightseeing
This viewpoint is very exposed. Requires about 20 minutes to get to the top. At the beginning of PR8, turn left right after the bridge and follow the narrow path right to the viewpoint. From the top, you can see an incredible view of the entire Dragon Tail peninsula. The place is called Marco because of a cement marker at the hilltop. Right next to the marker there is the best spot for taking photographs. It's outside the PR8 trail and is very exposed and not very safe, as it's right on the edge of a cliff. So, you must be very careful and focused at all times. To get there, park your car at the beginning of trail PR8 and head towards the start of the trail. Just before the wooden bridge, you'll notice a narrow path leading to the left. Follow it until you reach the end of the cliff. This spot is also interesting for taking photos, but our destination is at the top of the hill, on your right.
