What you’re looking at

The camera sits at the Ribeira do Faial leisure area on the north-east coast and looks along the shoreline towards Faial beach and the Miradouro do Guindaste viewpoint, with the open Atlantic filling the rest of the frame. It is the closest live camera to Santana and covers the same stretch of coast as the Quinta do Furão view.

Best time to check this camera

Use it as the stand-in for Santana while the Quinta do Furão stream is down: a clear frame here means the north-east coast is open for the day. Check it before driving to Santana, the Caldeirão Verde levada or the Guindaste viewpoint, and look for white surf lines that signal a heavy north swell.

If the view is clear:: The north-east is open: Santana, the Guindaste viewpoint and the Faial seafront are all go.
