Dramatic volcanic cliffs and ocean panoramas make this one of Madeira’s best photo spots, especially at sunrise. (However, this photo was taken during sunset).

Photography Tips

For photography, wide-angle shots work best, and drones are great here for capturing the rugged coastline — just expect strong and changing winds and fly early for calmer conditions and cleaner scenes.

Travel Information
