Ponta de São Lourenço

The easternmost cape of Madeira, known for its dry and windy landscape that differs significantly from the greener parts of the island. The circular trail PR8 leads along cliffs and rocky ridges with views of the Atlantic Ocean and the Desertas islands. Due to the almost complete lack of shade, it is recommended to bring enough water, sun protection, and appropriate hiking footwear.
