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.

Stop At: Santana, Santana, Madeira, Madeira Islands
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.

Stop At: Miradouro do Veu da Noiva, Er 101, Seixal, Madeira 9270-154 Portugal
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.

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.

Stop At: Ribeira da Janela, Ribeira da Janela, Madeira, Madeira Islands
The north coast of the island of Madeira is rich in imposing mountainous scenery, where the green of the slopes is complemented by the crystal-clear blue of the Atlantic. This is the case of the stunning landscape setting that can be viewed from the Ribeira da Janela viewpoint.
Located precisely at the top of the Ribeira da Janela parish, in Eira da Achada, this viewpoint allows you to see the parishes of Seixal, São Vicente and Ponta Delgada. The picture is completed, of course, with the beauty of the rugged and rocky outline typical of the coastline of this region of Madeira.

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. The sea, which exerts a vigorous presence along the entire Madeiran coast, has a special influence in the municipality of Porto Moniz. 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.
