The Obelisk marks the spot where liberal forces under Dom Pedro IV landed in 1832 during the Portuguese Civil War, the same conflict that would earn Porto its nickname as the Unvanquished City. It's a simple stone column, but it marks the beginning of a particularly pleasant stretch of beachfront walking.
The Road
From the Obelisk, keep on the beach-side walkways straight ahead. You will pass several bar/restaurants along the way to the Angeiras Sea Houses. The camino follows a pedestrian promenade alongside the sea.
