The São Bento da Ribeira Brava Fort, built in 1708 to fend off pirate attacks, stands as a historical gem on Madeira's west coast. After being damaged by a flood in 1803, the fort was restored in 1916 and now houses a Tourist Information Office. With its circular tower and seaside charm, it's a must-see spot for history buffs and curious travelers exploring the island.
