Cap Béar
A headland and lighthouse on the vermilion coast, with a cliff path offering views of the entire stretch from Collioure to the Spanish border.
Cap Béar sits east of Port-Vendres and is topped by a lighthouse built in 1905 and an old gun battery. It is one of the best viewpoints on the Côte Vermeille (Vermilion Coast). A walk of about 1 hour along the coastal path from Port-Vendres brings you here, or you can drive up to the parking area. There are several small coves below the cliffs with clear water. Take care in strong winds.
