Farol da Ponta de São Lourenço is a remote lighthouse at Madeira’s easternmost point, reached via the PR8 hike across the São Lourenço peninsula. The trail to the lighthouse is known for its dramatic coastal cliffs, volcanic rock formations, and sweeping Atlantic views. The hike is moderately challenging due to exposure to wind and sun but rewards visitors with some of the most unique landscapes on the island. It’s one of Madeira’s most iconic treks and a must‑see for hikers and photographers alike.
