Miradouro da Bica da Cana
Bica da Cana sits on the high plateau of Paul da Serra, a very different landscape from Madeira’s coastal towns.
History and character
The plateau’s open terrain, wind and fast-changing weather make it an important transition between the island’s south and north.
Why visit
- High plateau scenery
- Central-mountain panorama
- Cloud inversions in suitable conditions
Practical tip
Bring warm, windproof clothing. Visibility can change rapidly, especially in fog or low cloud.
