Welcome to Madeira

Welcome to this site for visitors to Madeira. Check the menu for the full contents.

I hope it helps you to find places of interest on the island and to visit them. For general information on transport, see Getting Around and for what you need to know before you set out on foot, see Walking. Information on specific activities and destinations can be found in the menu.

The main focus is on places you can visit in a day trip from Funchal, but we'll also look at some further-flung options if you're a repeat visitor or if you're staying for some time.
