Peniche

The city of Peniche is located in the Oeste region of Portugal, in the historical province of Estremadura, and in the Leiria District. It has a population of approximately 26,431 inhabitants and covers an area of 77.55 square kilometers.

Peniche is situated on a rocky peninsula, which is considered a unique example of the Toarcian turnover during the worldwide Early Jurassic extinction. The city has a long and interesting history, with its idiomatic expression "Friend from Peniche" used to describe someone who wants to receive things at the expense of others without giving anything in return.

The city of Peniche is home to several landmarks and historical sites, including the Berlengas Islands. The city itself has a population of about 15,600 inhabitants and is currently led by mayor Filipe Sales, elected by the Social Democratic Party. Despite the provided information, there is no specific mention of a lighthouse called Peniche, but the city's location on a rocky peninsula overlooking the sea suggests that it may have a significant maritime history and possibly a lighthouse. However, more information would be required to confirm this.
