Workation in Câmara de Lobos: the essentials
Churchill set up his easel at this harbour of painted fishing boats in 1950, and the boats are still there. Câmara de Lobos lies directly west of Funchal and functions as a working-class suburb of the capital, known for its poncha bars, its black scabbard fishing and the sheer sea cliff of Cabo Girão with a glass viewing platform. Vineyards climb the slopes around Estreito above town. The streets are steep and dense, parking is hard to find and the shoreline is rock rather than sand. Funchal is a short drive away, and Madeira Airport is about 20 km east.
