The Cape Fatu Cama ( tetum Capa Fatu Cama , Portuguese Cabo Fatucama ) is the cape at the eastern end of the Bay of Dili . It is located west of Dolok Oan Beach and Ponta Fatossídi and north of Areia Branca Beach in Suco Meti Aut, East Timor . On the Cape Fatu Cama is Cristo Rei , the monumental Jesus statue by Dili.
