The civil parish Madalena do Mar is known for its typical fishermen quarter, located right at the entrance, for those arriving from Ponta do Sol.

Madalena do Mar is one of the island’s warmest civil parishes, where the sun shines for the longest amount of hours.

One of the main features of this civil parish is the beautiful coastal road, connecting both ends of the village, where the beach and the quiet sea are also an attraction.

With a population around 700 inhabitants, today, Madalena do Mar presents itself differently from the way that was for centuries.

This civil parish also ended up by being known for its singular climate and unique geographic characteristics, in an extensive platform made by the slope’s rocks that have felt down into the sea, where you can enjoy the beautiful landscape of high and graceful hillsides, and the broad seafront.
