White slab

There are a few routes to be climbed right on the most southern tip of
Europe,the slab faces west so check sea conditions as this face takes the
full force of any swell thats coming in and we get big surf here..!!!
Tried to climb at night as there is a light on top but it kept going on and off,
Night mare....?? Its amazing,go find it..

First Time in Sagres

The first time on the sea cliffs is scary but if you know the right spot........its Fun. Heres Carolines first time..
