AIRVŪZ STAFF NOTE :
Check out this stunning aerial video of one of the world's highest coastal cliffs, compliments of contributor Franlac-Channel-France. Cape Girão is located off the southern coast of Madeira, the North Atlantic island which is part of Portugal. The cliffs feature a drop of 580 meters (about 1.9k ft.). In 2012, a skywalk was built here, the highest such structure in Europe. The cliffs are just a short distance from Câmara de Lobos, a suburb of the provincial capital Fumchal on the eastern side of the island.
