    Abra Bay is one of the most beautiful spots on Ponta de São Lourenço, impressing visitors with its clear waters and colorful volcanic cliffs. Nestled between rugged hills and the deep blue Atlantic Ocean, the bay exudes an almost surreal tranquility. It's the perfect place to pause and enjoy Madeira's unique landscape.

        What a rocky landscape. Everything of volcanic origin that rises meters high out of the water.
