Boaventura is located on the northern coast of Madeira, within the municipality of São Vicente, and extends from the Atlantic shoreline into a steep, deeply incised valley system reaching the island’s interior highlands. The settlement pattern is predominantly linear, following the valley floor and lower slopes, reflecting long-term adaptation to rugged terrain and hydrological constraints. The region occupies a transitional zone between the coastal environment and the mountainous interior, resulting in pronounced gradients in climate, vegetation, and land use over short distances.
