Relatively close to the viewpoint of Rocas, we also find the Ermida lookout, which, as the name implies, is located in Ermida village. Access is easy as it is inside the village and along the road that crosses through it. It has a small park where you can park your car. Going to the viewpoint itself requires some stairs, but it is possible to have a good view next to the road.
Despite being located at “only” 550 meters of altitude, you can see the river Lima in the background, and there are those who say that you can see the ocean. Despite being a mandatory stop whenever we pass by the Ermida, we have never confirmed that it is possible to see the ocean. We don’t know whether it’s legend or reality, we don’t know, but we suggest you try it when you go there.
