An old fortress with 360º views over dowtown Funchal! A great place to see the fireworks, namely the Festival do Atlântica that occurs every year in June (on Saturdays).
Wonderful café within 2 min of walking distance. Cozy atmosphere and with a view over the bay of Funchal. Great to have a coffee or a snack!
São João Baptista Fort is Funchal "ex-libris". From here you can see Funchal from above and the view worths the visit.
In the middle of the 20th century, it was given to the Navy to accommodate its Communication Centre. Due to the great number of antennae on the fortress, the population began to call it “Radio Peak”
