What To Expect
Miradouro do Cristo Rei do Garajau
Located in one of the most surprising places on the island of Madeira, the statue of Christ the King of Garajau is one of the most emblematic monuments on the east coast. It is a must-visit point, which captivates visitors with its unique landscape setting.
The statue of Christ the King of Garajau was erected in honor of the Sacred Heart of Jesus. It can be found at the viewpoint overlooking Ponta do Garajau, in the municipality of Santa Cruz. The monument was financed and built by Aires de Ornelas, son of the last morgado of Caniço. Its inauguration took place on October 30, 1927. On that date, the road that connects the town of Cancela to the Monument was also opened to traffic.

Pico do Facho viewpoint
Overlooking the Machico valley, Pico do Facho Viewpoint offers visitors an extremely beautiful panoramic view. This is one of the most privileged sites to contemplate Madeira's east coast.This observatory is located on a path that, before reaching the Caniçal tunnel, goes up to the summit of Pico do Facho. It is a site filled with historical symbolism for the region: due to its altitude, large bonfires were lit here in the old days when it was necessary to warn the population about the arrival of enemy vessels.

Ponta de Sao Lourenco
This 3 km trail (+ 3 km return) will take you to discover the eastern tip of the island, with panoramic views of the north and south sides. Of medium difficulty, and expected to last 2h30, the PR 8 Vereda da Ponta de São Lourenço runs along the peninsula with this same name.Even though it is an undulating path, the good conditions of Vereda da Ponta de São Lourenço offer a pleasant walking experience. It is a peninsula of volcanic origin, mostly basalt, but with some formations of limestone sediments. Following it, there are two islets: Ilhéu do Desembarcadouro and Ilhéu do Farol.

Santana
The “little houses of Santana” have become icons widely known nationally (and beyond) for the peculiar beauty of their architectural style. With a triangular shape and covered in thatch, they are the greatest symbol of this municipality on the north coast of the island of Madeira.In fact, these typical houses are a reflection of the isolation of this location, which for a long time was difficult to access by land and sea. The preservation of unique cultural traits, as a result of this contingency, has become a heritage of enormous value for this municipality, which currently has around 8800 inhabitants.

Miradouro do Veu da Noiva
Located on the old road that connects São Vicente and Seixal, it is one of the most iconic spots (and shared on social media) on the north coast of the island of Madeira. We are talking about the emblematic Véu da Noiva Waterfall, whose beauty can be admired from the Véu da Noiva viewpoint.Through this viewpoint it is then possible to admire this unrepeatable landscape in complete serenity. The waterfall that projects down the slope, towards the sea, was named so due to its height and the great abundance of water that gushes from it. It therefore resembles the romantic veil of a wedding dress, contrasting with its verdant surroundings.

Praia do Porto do Seixal
On the north coast of the island of Madeira, there is a corner known for its unique beauty. Porto de Abrigo do Seixal beach, also known simply as Seixal beach, is an authentic living postcard. As such, its landscape has won over lovers of the sea, nature and, of course, photography.The scenery is painted in harmonious tones: a black sand bathed by the Atlantic and protected by cliffs and verdant mountains. This place therefore appears to be a green amphitheater, offering bathers a peaceful atmosphere.

Porto Moniz, a municipality located in the extreme north of Madeira Island, presents some of the most beautiful images of the Region. Between the grandeur of the mountains and the calm surface of the ocean, the municipality of Porto Moniz also dazzles with the charm of its picturesque parishes, which are overflowing with rich customs.This entire region is deeply marked by the botanical diversity of the Laurissilva forest, which from above confronts the imposing northern sea, through its cliffs, cliffs and coves.

Since early in the history of its construction, the inhabitants of Porto Moniz depended on fishing activity, which still represents an important factor in the local economy today. This relationship with the sea is also evident in annual celebrations such as “Porto Moniz Sea Week”. This, the largest cultural, recreational and sporting event
