Unique bathing experiences in natural lava pools

Unique bathing experiences await you in natural lava pools, surrounded by breathtaking scenery. Created by millennia-old lava flows, these pools offer a perfect combination of crystal clear Atlantic waters and picturesque basalt rocks. While the eastern pools retain their wild, natural beauty, where caution is advised because of the sharp rocks, the western pools offer an outdoor pool-like ambience with polished stones and shallow entrances. Here you can swim safely and at the same time enjoy the uninterrupted view of the open sea. These natural swimming pools are a must-see for any visitor to Madeira looking for an unparalleled swimming experience.
