Funchal

Madeira invites you to wander along its levadas, breathe in ocean views, and discover hidden gardens, villages, and natural pools along the way. The island is also a feast for the senses, from sweet passion fruit and bananas to the unique custard apple.

In Funchal, the capital, life spills onto historic streets, lively markets, and the busy marina. Taste local favourites like bolo do caco with garlic butter, espada with banana, and a glass of Madeira wine. Festivals, music, and daily markets bring the island’s traditions to life.
