Madeira, an escape in the heart of the Atlantic
A generous climate
The climate is good and mild throughout the year, and while there are few beaches, many developed natural pools allow for sunbathing. It never really gets cold in Madeira: the lowest temperatures hover around 15 °C in winter.
The island of flowers
Madeira is often described as a "floating garden" and it is enough to count the number of botanical gardens open to the public to realize this. A significant culture of orchids has even developed there.
A rich and lively culture
The heritage of the "Great Discoveries" is significant: churches, palaces, or delightful quintas. Some museums also allow a good understanding of Madeira's traditions, which are still alive, as evidenced by the festivals of various villages throughout the year. As for embroidery or basketry workshops, they attest that Madeiran craftsmanship is still well established.
The walker's paradise
It must be said and repeated: Madeira can only be discovered by the walker. The smallest levada (irrigation canal and aqueduct that serves as a path) is conducive to a stroll. They are everywhere (nearly 1,500 km of levadas on the island!) By organizing your trip directly with a local agency, you are assured of discovering the most beautiful trails because the locals know them by heart!
Excellent hospitality structures
