About this experience

- CABO GIRAO at an elevation of 580 m, and is famous for its suspended glass platform.

- Ribeira brava fresh fruit and vegetables market

- Ponta de sol village where the magic sun always shine

- Fanal Forest At Fanal, the main role is undoubtedly played by the centuries-old Til (Ocotea foetens) forest - with trees that date back to a time before the discovery of the archipelago. They are part of the indigenous Laurissilva forest, which expresses itself here in an impressive state of conservation given its vitality.

- Porto moniz Of volcanic origin - formed over millennia by the cooling of lava - the natural physiognomy of these pools allows the constant entry of seawater. The water is therefore considered of an excellent quality level, given its ceaseless renewal.
