We've been there and it's a great view of the landing strip on the approach..Fortunately, it was a decent weather day.
I expect you've gone up in the cable-car to the Botanical Gardens. I can't cope with heights, (me legs 'go funny just looking at photos taken from it..lol) so we went up there on the bus which, as you can guess can be quite hairy,too. It terrified my wife. Lol. The fish market is something else. We looked down on it from the balcony. Took a whale/dolphin boat trip and got some great shots including that of a huge Leatherback sea turtle. Also went to Pico Do Arieiron ,a private tour. Just us and another couple, who we didn't know but turned out to be very nice people. It was a personnel carrier. We stayed in the wonderful Cliff Bay Hotel half-way up the hill out of the town. Would recommend the island to anyone.
It was this one.Magic Dolphin https://www.tripadvisor.co.uk/Attra...d_Whale_Watching-Madeira_Madeira_Islands.htmlNever sorted it yet but I think you can now get a rover ? Hop on/off for 3-7-10 days.
We alternate between Girasol suites up towards the Lido in Spring and Penha de Franca by the harbour in late Autumn, just discovered I need new shorts, mine have shrunk in the wardrobe since last year!
Who‘s whale trip did you use? Might manage to get herself on the water sometime.
