Travel Agent in the New York City Metropolitan Area
Lets Travel!
Located 575 mi/925 km southwest of Portugal's mainland, in the Atlantic, Madeira Island is the largest island in the Archipelago of Madeira. Handsome and immaculate, Madeira has many historical sites but only a few fairly small beaches.
The primary attractions are scenic nature walks along the levadas (irrigation channels) in the island's interior and the local vineyards, which produce the fortified wine of the same name. You should plan to spend five nights on Madeira.
The Laurisilva is an incredible old-growth laurel forest that is home to a diverse population of plants and animals, including the Madeiran long-toed pigeon. You'll also find excellent deep-sea fishing, a casino, beautiful flowers and gardens, and shops selling embroidery and lace.
Visit the capital, Funchal, where the marina and most of the hotels are, and where shops sell the colorful local attire. The entire city can be seen in about two hours, but there's enough to do to fill a whole day.
After you've toured Funchal, take the cable car to Monte (a 15-minute ride) for a lovely view of the island. Other interesting places on Madeira include Camara de Lobos, a beautiful fishing village, and Cabo Girao, which locals claim to be the world's second-highest sea cliff (the highest is on the island of Molokai in Hawaii).
Santana is home to the curious triangular-roofed houses that feature on many postcards, although there's little other reason to linger there unless the nearby theme park appeals. Further west along the northern coast is Sao Vicente, a pretty little village backed by verdant slopes where it's possible to explore the inside of a volcano at the Volcanic Interpretation Center.
The Atlantic Festival is held every year in June on Madeira. It is one of Europe's most celebrated and internationally recognized fireworks competitions. https://www.visitmadeira.com.
Cruise ships dock close to the Funchal city center, but most cruise lines provide shuttles into town. It is possible to walk the short distance to downtown, though be aware that it is slightly strenuous. Cabs are also available to transport passengers into downtown and are abundant around the city.
A good way to see the city is the hop-on, hop-off bus, which drives through the beautiful and historic areas of Funchal. City buses are reasonably priced and also a good option for seeing the city. The historic center is walkable, but beyond that, steep hills make other forms of transport nearly essential.
