About

Visitors have left 138 reviews and an average score of 4.5 out of 5, a strong signal for a viewpoint of this kind. The lookout occupies a stretch of the EN1-1A at Santo António, placing it on the island's main road network rather than off the beaten track. Its position suits travellers moving between the larger towns, and a stop here works well when the weather is clear.
São Miguel's mild oceanic climate keeps the landscape green throughout the year, with most rain falling in winter. Summer is the driest and warmest season, and the sea stays warm enough for swimming from June to September. Tea and pineapple are grown on the island, and hydrangeas line the lanes in summer.
Carnival, religious processions and bull-running on a rope form part of the island calendar, so timing a visit around these events can add to a trip. A car makes the most sense for reaching the viewpoint and the surrounding countryside at your own pace.
