Miradouro do Guindaste, also known as Crane Viewpoint, is a beautiful spot on the east coast of Madeira Island. This stunning viewpoint offers panoramic views of the Atlantic Ocean from Faial to Ponta de São Lourenço and is the best point for capturing breathtaking sunrise photographs. I highly recommend getting up early to take advantage of the golden hour illuminating the cliffs and water, too!
