Porto do Moniz, parish and municipality of Porto Moniz, north coast of Madeira
The harbour of Porto do Moniz is reputedly the safest and most sheltered anchorage on Madeira's north coast, used as a refuge when southerly winds close the southern ports. The Elucidário records hydrographic studies made in 1914 and harbour works carried out between 1901 and 1916.
