Description
Hey there, welcome to our page :)
And welcome to Costa da Morte! The coast of poetry, cliffs, wild storms, lighthouses and crystal beaches.
It was Milou’s longtime dream to live in a lighthouse to bring humans of all ages and backgrounds together through song, silence and nature. During her search through Europe for an empty lighthouse, we found this land on a hiking trail that leads you to all lighthouses of Costa da Morte. And so the story began.
We believe that the planet needs as many dots on the map as possible where humans, animals and plants can thrive in harmony. Our land is meant to be one of these dots.
Do you want to be part of our project, our home, explore the surroundings and contribute to the place with your talents?
