Miradouro das Flores
Tourist attraction
👍👍 This viewpoint is in a stunning position at the southern point of Porto Santa and confers great views of the nearby islet called Ilhéu da Cal. I walked up here on the second day of my seven day stay on the island and the trek paid handsome rewards.

Casa d'Avó
Restaurant
👍👍 Honestly such a pleasant experience. The food was really nice but what really stood out was the amazing waitress that served us. Really such a caring and attentive person. Not to speak about the brownie! Literally the best brownie I’ve ever tried.

Panorama Restaurant

🫤 As per usual we were looking something new and good dining experience. Apparently this is one of the best place on the island to eat. Perhaps we were just unlucky, but our experience wasn’t that great.
Started that the waiter were very pushy with up selling. Instead of tap water we got a bottle of...

Praia do Zimbralinho
Tourist attraction
😐 Cute beach.. Worth the walk down about 10 mins on some steep stairs from the car park. Snorkeling is good but the water gets deep quickly and it's very rocky. We stop at the small seat on the way back up and the local lizards come out to be fed by hand which is really strange.

Sabores na Brasa
Restaurant
👍👍 I am from Canada and have a very high standard of food. I am so happy I came here. The food was excellent better than what I have had so far in Madeira and Porto. I would highly recommend this restaurant. The flavours were absolutely delicious while still tasting like a home cooked meal. The octopus...

Restaurante Grill Torres

👍👍 Probably the best octopus I've ever had! All the food we got was exceptional and the tuna steak was just on point, beautifully seared and tasting as fresh as it could. The service is equality great and so is the vibe of the restaurant, with its beautiful decor.

PS PR1 Vereda Pico Branco and Terra Chã
Hiking area
👍👍 Wonderful walk. This place is a must see. Anyone who likes to be in Nature and would like to enjoy a mountainous experience right in the middle of the Atlantic should take at least half a day to enjoy this walk. The challenge is very moderate but I recommend taking a light sweater and a wind jacket....

Porto Santo Sub, lda - Dive Centre
Diving center
👍👍 The dive center is a little bit hidden away at the end of the Port - the Google Maps location is correct in case you have doubts. They offer pick up from the hotel in the morning which is really convenient. I had three wonderful wreck dives over two days and we were lucky enough to see a manta ray o...
