The farthest end of continental Europe is generally considered to be Cabo da Roca, which is located in Portugal. It is situated on the western coast of the Iberian Peninsula, approximately 40 kilometers (25 miles) west of Lisbon.

Cabo da Roca is marked by a lighthouse and is often referred to as the "westernmost point of Europe." It has a latitude of 38°46′51″ N and a longitude of 9°29′54″ W, making it the point on the European continent that is farthest west.

However, if you're considering the northernmost or easternmost points, they would be:

- Northernmost: Nordkapp (North Cape), Norway
- Easternmost: Cape Dezhnev, Russia (near the Bering Strait)

Let me know if you have any other questions!
