Valley of the Nuns

The "Nuns Valley" is a small village situated in the crater of an extinct volcano, which has kept its 16th-century Santa Clara Convent where the nuns used to hide from pirates who were attacking Funchal.

Our trip (with Lido Tours) included going to the top Pico de Arieiro so we could look down on the village, then onto the village itself where we enjoyed some chestnut bread and chestnut cake and had a sample of chestnut liqueur.. And we visited the chestnut museum! We didn't actually have time to eat anything in the restaurant itself, but did see people eating - you guessed it - roasted chestnuts! It's only a small place, but nice for a gentle wander - and don't miss the church, it's also pretty spectacular, especially given the size of the village. Our trip then went on to Camara de Lobos, another beauty spot where we thoroughly enjoyed a glass of poncha.

Cabo Girao

Reviewed By cliffm445 - Slough, United Kingdom

Popular spot. Good place for picking up buses, taxis or the great Green Train down to the coastal resort of Camara dos Lobos You will pay through the nose at the cafe - tea, coffee and custard tarts @ €15 would almost buy a meal for two with wine locally

Eira do Serrado

Reviewed By Lily-Worldtraveler - The Netherlands, null

From the parking lot you follow a path that goes up to the viewpoint. It takes about 10 minutes to get there. You have a good view at the Valley of the Nuns and the surrounding mountains. At the parking lot is a restaurant with facilities.

Madeira Green Train

Reviewed By CheeseEatersUK - Northwich, United Kingdom

This is the best way to travel to Cabo Girao as the views are so much better than from a coach. The train is in Camara dos Lobos at the hop on hop off bus stop and the journey is great fun with stunning views. . There is a stop of about 25 Minutes at Cabo Girao which is more than enough time and there is a stop for photographs during the journey. It really is great fun.

Baia de Camara de Lobos

Reviewed By 11olgaa - Frankfurt, Germany

This little Fishermans village belongs to metropolitan area of Funchal. It is located at a very picturesque bay with colourful boats surrounded by the rocks and houses. On the top there are numerous banana terraces. Nice place to visit if you’re nearby
