Miradouro Ilheus da Ribeira da Janela

About

Climb up stairs carved into a rock face in the northwest of Madeira and walk through a tunnel dug through a cliff to arrive at the Miradouro Ilhéus da Ribeira da Janela, a viewpoint over the Ribeira da Janela valley and Atlantic Ocean. This incredible coastal destination is privy to remarkable rock formations just meters from the shore, pointing upwards to the skies in peculiar formations. Take a photo in front of the striking contrast of granite rock in front of clear blue skies, poking out from ultramarine waters. Swallows encircle the formations and gently chirp as the sound of waves beating the pebbled shore line will swallow you into another reality.
