Hiking

The Farol da Ponta do Arnel is a lighthouse in the east of the Azores island of São Miguel. It stands in the municipality of Nordeste on a rocky outcrop of the Ponta do Arnel. The lighthouse is - with the exception of a small beacon on the pier of Ponta Delgada - the oldest lighthouse in the Azores.
