This was one of our bucket list drone locations (video shown in my IG highlights)! Serra de Água is a charming little village nestled in the mountains of Madeira, Portugal. Its name comes from an old watermill used for sawmilling back in the day. The area is surrounded by lush vegetation and high peaks like Picoda Cruz, making it a picturesque spot. Despite its challenging terrain, agriculture is still the main gig here, with most folks growing their own grub on small plots. Plus, there's a bit of action in the hotel and construction industries too.
