#### Enjoy a rewarding hike, cool off with a swim and admire arresting views at Madeira’s easternmost point.

Sao Lourenco Point is a narrow peninsula distinguished by its intriguing volcanic rock formations, which have been carved over the centuries by the sea and wind. Stretching approximately 5.6 miles (9 kilometers) long and 1.2 miles (2 kilometers) wide, this unusual desert-like landscape was classified as a nature reserve to protect its unique flora and fauna. 

Look for the peninsula’s old lighthouse, perched on an islet that projects into the sea. Originally constructed in the late 19th century, this lighthouse is said to be the oldest in Madeira. Accessible only by boat, the lighthouse has operated automatically since the 1980s. Today, it’s powered by solar energy.

Follow the trail curving around the peninsula and trace a path upwards to a scenic lookout point. This 4.3-mile (7-kilometer) trail begins at the parking lot and takes between 2 to 3 hours to hike. One of the most popular times of day to hike along this trail is during the late afternoon, when you can watch the colors of the sunset illuminating the peninsula’s multi-toned rock formations. 

As you hike along the trail, look for some of the area’s distinctive animals and plants. You’ll see wispy everlastings, spiky cardoons and brightly colored ice plants. You might spot birds flying overhead or, if you’re lucky, endangered Mediterranean monk seals swimming off the coast.

When you reach the peak of the trail, take a moment to appreciate the gorgeous views over the island and sea. Look south to see the rocky and barren-looking Ilhas Desertas (Deserted Islands). To the north, you’ll be able to see Porto Santo Island. This island is home to unspoiled beaches, whitewashed villas and volcanic peaks. 

Prainha, the island’s only natural black-sand beach, is located at the base of the cliff. Popular with locals and tourists, this small beach is known for its excellent swimming conditions. 

Sao Lourenco Point can be reached by bus from Caniçal. Parking is available on-site and the trail is free to enjoy any time of day.

9/10 Wonderful! (580 reviews)

We had a good stay, the reception staff are very welcoming and friendly. Room was clean and there was plenty of spare towels, pillows etc. We went on half board basis. Although there was plenty of food, it lacked taste. Buffet menu needs to improve, especially the hot food for vegetarians. Very insipid. Also we felt cheated because we asked for tap water at dinner and got charged for it! The head waiter takes the order for drinks and we felt it was his duty to inform customers that they charge even for tap water! It is ironical that they give free prosecco and at breakfast, but charge for water at dinner!! Customers can make an informed decision about ordering water if the hotel can make them aware of their charges. Overall, the staff are hard working and try very hard to do their best. Not a bad place to stay but be prepared to pay for your water at dinner!

8.8/10 Excellent! (1,005 reviews)

Fantastic hotel , rooms were big and very comfortable. Buffet breakfast was very good with plenty of choice and very tasty in all fairness. Plenty of pools so you're not stuck for beds or parasols which is not the case in a lot of hotels. We had a great time on the 'Abba night' we felt it was spot on and well worth the cost, the food was very tasty and the drinks kept flowing the staff didn't hold back fair play👌 My only word of warning is that you pay quite a lot of money to stay at the hotel so I was quite shocked when I realised they were applying a 10% service charge to drinks at the bar, drinks at the poolside and at the pub restaurant, this is something I've never encountered before in a hotel.I raised my issue at the reception desk only to be told I didn't have to pay it if I didn't want to and to tell the staff next time. 10% may not seem a lot but i would've liked to have been made aware there was an option to pay it or not.
