Fisterra, or Finisterre, means "end of the Earth" in Galician / Spanish respectively. It's the westernmost point of Spain (and almost but not quite the westernmost point of continental Europe - that honour is reserved to Cabo da Roca in Portugal).
It's also where a lot of the modern-day pilgrims doing the "Camino de Santiago" over weeks or months finish their route, after reaching the cathedral in Santiago de Compostella.
A lot watch the sunset, so it's busy around the lighthouse...but sunrise isn't:
