The West Tour starts off from the reception area of your hotel. The first stop will be at Cabo Girão, this absolutely amazing sea cliff will present you with breath-taking panoramic views.

After that we go to Madalena do Mar, where we will visit the banana plantation. Then we go to Fonte do Bispo, this is a view point located between 1300 and 1500 meters. After that we get to Porto Moniz, which is famous for its series of natural volcanic pools created by reefs in the coastal lava rocks. The next stop is Seixal, there is a beautiful black sand beach. Then we make our way to the town of São Vincent, which is one of the most predominant villages of the northern coast of Madeira island. Our last stop, is Camara do Lobos, famous fishing village; and favourite painting spot of the late Winston Churchill!
