Três Marias da Vargem

4.5(472 reviews)

About

Três Marias da Vargem, on Madeira, is a viewpoint at VE3 130, 9360, Portugal, in the island's western interior. First-time visitors should expect a roadside viewing spot rather than a formal attraction, with no facilities or staff on hand. Its 4.5 out of 5 rating, drawn from 472 reviews, reflects how consistently walkers and drivers rate the stop. Reaching it is easiest by car along the VE3, and it sits within range of Calheta, Porto Moniz and São Vicente for those touring the island's western side. The viewpoint's position in the western uplands places it among the volcanic peaks, crater lakes and steep terraced fields that shape Madeira's interior. Funchal, Câmara de Lobos and Caniço lie further east, while Machico and Santana sit on the opposite coast. Fish stews and grilled fish are everyday dishes on the island, and each island keeps its own recipes. Sea temperatures stay warm enough for swimming for much of the year, though the water is cooler than in the Mediterranean. Music and dance remain central to island life, from morna and coladeira to Azorean folk songs.
