Claimed to be Europe’s highest viewing platform, this large overlook is located at the top of the famous Cabo Girao cliff which is situated 580 meters above the Atlantic Ocean. Located on Portugal’s beautiful Madeira Island, the cantilevered structure was completed in 2012 with glass panels on the outermost section.
There is a nice drone video of the overlook below.
