Prazeres (English: pleasures) is a civil parish in the municipality of Calheta in the Portuguese archipelago of Madeira.

In addition, upon reaching its pinnacle in the interior (1276 metres) the border continues down the river-valley of the Ribeira da Janela.

Similarly, this area is the primary agricultural lands accessed by ancillary roads that extend almost to the edge of the cliffs.

The Caminho Real, one of the official Madeira Islands Footpaths (PR19) starts in Prazeres and leads to Paul do Mar.

The parish has seven restaurants, serving typical traditional delicacies (such as cod) or other customary foods, such as Italian pizzas, lasagnas or pasta dishes.
