(Subject to Option Inclusions)Itinerary
Miradouro do Cristo Rei do Garajau
Located in one of the most surprising places on the island of Madeira, the statue of Christ the King of Garajau is one of the most emblematic monuments on the east coast. It is a must-visit point, which captivates visitors with its unique landscape setting. The statue of Christ the King of Garajau was erected in honor of the Sacred Heart of Jesus. It can be found at the viewpoint overlooking Ponta do Garajau, in the municipality of Santa Cruz. The monument was financed and built by Aires de Ornelas, son of the last morgado of Caniço. Its inauguration took place on October 30, 1927. On that date, the road that connects the town of Cancela to the Monument was also opened to traffic.
Pico do Facho viewpoint
Overlooking the Machico valley, Pico do Facho Viewpoint offers visitors an extremely beautiful panoramic view. This is one of the most privileged sites to contemplate Madeira's east coast. This observatory is located on a path that, before reaching the Caniçal tunnel, goes up to the summit of Pico do Facho. It is a site filled with historical symbolism for the region: due to its altitude, large bonfires were lit here in the old days when it was necessary to warn the population about the arrival of enemy vessels.
Ponta de Sao Lourenco
This 3 km trail (+ 3 km return) will take you to discover the eastern tip of the island, with panoramic views of the north and south sides. Of medium difficulty, and expected to last 2h30, the PR 8 Vereda da Ponta de São Lourenço runs along the peninsula with this same name. Even though it is an undulating path, the good conditions of Vereda da Ponta de São Lourenço offer a pleasant walking experience. It is a peninsula of volcanic origin, mostly basalt, but with some formations of limestone sediments. Following it, there are two islets: Ilhéu do Desembarcadouro and Ilhéu do Farol.
