Ilhéu Gardens
The Ilhéu (islet) viewpoint, in Câmara de Lobos, is located at the heart of the city, in a cliff overlooking the sea where according to some authors has been the site of the first residence of João Gonçalves Zarco, the discoverer of the Madeira island, arguably because this islet would give more security to him. More recently, this was also the place where most of the fisherman’s choose to live. Currently it features a lovely garden and the views from the top of the Islet are beautiful.
