	Cape Finisterre - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Cape Finisterre (Spanish: Cabo Finisterre; Galician Cabo Fisterra) is a rock-bound peninsula in the uttermost west of Galicia, Spain.
		Cape Finisterre is the westernmost point of Spain, though not of Continental Europe (that honour belongs to Cabo da Roca in Portugal), and its name, like that of Finistère in France, derives from Finisterrae in Latin which literally means Land's End.
		Cape Finisterre is the final destination for many pilgrims on the Way of St. James, the pilgrimage to the shrine of the apostle Saint James the Great in the cathedral of Santiago de Compostela.

	Cabo da Roca - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

		Compare Cape Finisterre (literally End of land) in Spain, Finistère in France, and Land's End in the United Kingdom.

	East Cape Fishing Reports and Sportfishing Vacation Information
		The "East Cape" sportfishing area of southern Baja California, Mexico, is solid gold water for the large or small boat angler who wants to catch really big fish.
		Although May and June in the spring, and October and November in the fall, are the peak times for fishing in the East Cape area for most species, the summer fishing season finds large blue marlin and fl marlin feeding on dorado just outside the reefs and inside of the 100-fathom curve.
		This special East Cape reef is the only place in Baja where we have experienced a wild, continuous surface bite on schooling triggerfish, as they erupted in big boils and jumps all along in front of the town.
