    The lighthouse is located on the westernmost tip of Madeira. The nearest mainland is America.
    The lighthouse is 312 m above sea level, making it the highest signal light in Portugal. Its light range is about 80 miles.
    There is also a small museum in the lighthouse.
    The circular route is very beautiful and you pass the Miradouro do Fio. From here you have an amazing view of the rugged coast, which is of volcanic origin.
