Hiking
The viewpoint on the cliffs of Arco da Calheta offers a breathtaking view over the northwest coast of Madeira: rugged cliffs that drop directly into the deep blue sea, green mountain ridges and a wide horizon create a dramatic scene that invites you to linger and take photographs.

A small stop before or after going over the cliffs. In the background a restaurant with a great view from the terrace and good food.
