About

Situated on a rocky cliff that rises above the Atlantic Ocean, Esscalvado Viewpoint - also known as Miradouro do Escalvado - offers panoramic views of the rugged coastline, the deep blue ocean, and the surrounding countryside. From this viewpoint you’ll be able to spot the lava "fajãs" of Ferraria and Mosteiros, the islets of Mosteiros, and the town of Várzea. It’s a fascinating location to study and observe the volcanic area of the land, as much of the viewpoint is uninterrupted. Place yourself at an altitude of 238 meters and enjoy the natural beauty of the island amidst a tranquil atmosphere, which is sure to tantalize nature lovers, hikers, photographers and travelers alike.
