    Hiking

    From the Boca das Voltas viewpoint, a breathtaking view unfolds: the Laurissilva forest covers the slopes with its intense green, framed by the deep blue of the sea in the distance.

    Amidst lawns and silence, it's the ideal place to lose yourself in the landscape. From here, you can see the serene beauty of Falcas, the discreet houses of Achada da Madeira, Lombo do Urzal… and far below, the mouth of Ribeira do Porco, where a small pebble beach hides beside the clear waters.

    Hiking

    Boca das Voltas is a quiet, secluded viewpoint above São Jorge, offering breathtaking panoramic views of Madeira's north coast, the deep blue of the Atlantic Ocean, and the surrounding laurel forest.

    Despite its beauty, the spot often remains sparsely visited and is considered a hidden gem among hikers, particularly suited to nature lovers and those seeking tranquility.
