Perched high above Madeira’s rugged western coastline, Miradouro da Ponta da Ladeira is one of the island’s most breathtaking spots to watch the sunset. As the day fades, the sky transforms into a canvas of warm golds and deep purples, while the layers of mountains cascade gently toward the Atlantic, creating a mesmerizing play of light and shadow. It’s the kind of view that feels almost endless—the cliffs, the sea, and the horizon melting together in perfect harmony.
Bringing a sunset picnic here is pure magic. With the soft breeze, the scent of the ocean below, and the sound of distant waves, it’s an experience that captures the quiet beauty of Madeira at its finest.
This trip was made in collaboration with Brussels Airlines, that offers direct flights from Brussels Airport to Funchal all year round.
