Grutas e Centro de Vulcanismo

TIME : 2016/2/18 23:40:04

Top billing on Madeira's north coast goes to this two-for-one attraction just south of São Vicente. The first part of the experience is a guided tour of the local caves – 900,000-year-old lava tubes studied by English geologist James Johnson in the 1850s. The second part is the Centro do Vulcanismo, a 3D, interactive look at Madeira's volcanic birth and volcanoes in general.
