    Tips

    May 16, 2024

    Located on the south coast of Madeira Island, Câmara de Lobos was the first place inhabited by João Gonçalves Zarco, the navigator who discovered this “pearl of the Atlantic”. Remaining there between 1420 and 1424, this was the first settlement established in Madeira, becoming a parish in 1430. Its historical legacy is therefore very relevant.

    The name of this municipality comes from the fact that at the time of the island's discovery there were a large number of sea lions in the bay, which can still be found here today in the same configuration. Several monuments still remain in this region that refer to this historical period, from the Chapel of Nossa Senhora da Conceição, founded in the 15th century, to the old Monastery of São Bernardino from 1425, through the Church of São Sebastião, built in the 16th century.

    The municipality of Câmara de Lobos currently has an area of 51.82 km² and approximately 35 thousand inhabitants.

      In addition to the parish of Câmara de Lobos, four parishes are part of the municipality: Curral das Freiras, Estreito de Câmara de Lobos, Jardim da Serra and Quinta Grande.

      The landscape of this town is characterized by the presence of characteristic fishing boats, called “Xavelhas”.
