Portugal Cliffs by Promenade do Lido
Wildly rough vulcanic cliff with some flowers (June).
Photography Tips
Sunrise is probably better, but sunset could be good too - while staying in the hotel behind the scenes, I have seen some decent colorful clouds during sunsets as well.
ND filter is always handy...

Travel Information
I was staying at a nearby hotel (Pestana Grand) at the time, but parking, especially in the early morning should be no problem in the nearby area. Then you can take a short walk to the Promenade do Lido. From here there is a small hatch in a fence and a short path down the cliffs. In my case, it was the first morning of vacation and I did not have a car yet so I tried to get the best of the area - and found these rocks. The rocks are easily accessible, just be careful climbing down.
