The story of Câmara de Lobos
Câmara de Lobos was one of the first settlements on Madeira in the 15th century. Its name comes from the monk seals ("sea wolves") that once lived in its bay.
In 1950 Winston Churchill painted the harbour here during a holiday. Nearby, the Cabo Girão skywalk juts out from a cliff about 580 metres above the sea.
