The Ponta do Sol Pier is a historic and architecturally striking spot on the west coast of Madeira. Built in the 19th century, it features a large round arch connecting the pier to the cliffs. Once the safest pier on the island's southwest coast, it now houses a restaurant and bar with views of Ponta do Sol Beach.

Tip: Grab a drink and enjoy the sunset!

Fun fact: The pier was once an important hub for sugar export.
