Location
On the southwest of Madeira, Ponta do Sol is more than 500 years old and has a rich history as a hub for sugar cane and banana trade. The natural beauty is powerful here with big Atlantic waves and sheer cliffs reaching to the horizon. Don't miss out on the Hispanic-Arabic ceiling of the 15th-century chapel and Lugar de Baixo mansion from the 19th-century. A good time to head to Madeira is during the Carnival, one of the most cheerful regional festivities.
