Miradouro da Raposeira

🏘️ Calheta · Fajã da Ovelha · Raposeira do Lugarinho

The sunset meeting point of the west coast: at about 600 m in the farming parish of Fajã da Ovelha, Raposeira overlooks the steep coastal slopes and watches the sun vanish behind the line of the ocean — locals and visitors come up for that moment. An almost aerial view of Paul do Mar, a fishing village, and, further on, of Prazeres, named after an old chapel of Nossa Senhora dos Prazeres, and of Jardim do Mar, an oasis for surfers.
