Walking through the fantastic beautiful garden, which occupies an area of 70.000 square meters.
Lined up. Cable car ride, a journey of 3.200 meters from the base and takes about 15 minutes to reach the top and the village of Monte.
Funchal, the capital of Madeira. A picturesque, vibrant city with cobbled streets, cafes, bars, restaurants, facing the blue Atlantic with a backdrop of dramatic mountains. An absolute Top place for ''Ports of Call''.
At the top. Cabo Girao, standing on the glass bridge at 580 meters above sea level, reportedly the highest sea cliffs in Europe.
Framed pool. This volcanic pool, known as Madeira's Natural Pools is located in Seixal, on the North coast.
Ponta Do Sol, meaning Sunny point. This charming and colourful little town is situated on the southwest coast and as the name suggests; it is one of the sunniest spots on the island.
The Portugese word Madeira means wood. I would say Madeira Rocks!! An absolutely stunning, beautiful, scenic island. Volcanic in nature and blessed with sheer cliffs, blue seas and skies, The Hawaii of Europe.
