The beautiful municipality of Câmara de Lobos is located on Madeira's south coast and is home to a critical historical and cultural legacy. The bay of Câmara de Lobos, which is the main attraction of this seaside town, is one of its most iconic sights with its characteristic fishing boats that stand out against the peaceful waters. Here lies a piece of World History as this is where João Gonçalves Zarco first set foot upon, having discovered the 'pearl of the Atlantic'. In addition, you can find several monuments scattered across the region that are also worth visiting.
