Pico dos Barcelos

If you wish to contemplate the attractive bay and city of Funchal in a relaxed way, then, without a doubt, the Pico dos Barcelos viewpoint is one of the must-see stops during your stay in the Madeiran archipelago. Here, you will have one of the best opportunities to observe a 360-degree panoramic view over this entire region with the Desertas islands as a backdrop.

Located in the parish of Santo António, at an altitude of about 355 meters, this viewpoint dates from 1950. It has several green spaces, restaurants and shopping areas where you can get to know the regional and handmade products of Madeira Island.

To get to the Pico dos Barcelos viewpoint, you can do so by car, cab, bus (line 48), or better yet, on foot.
