Photos of Madeira, the island of flowers

A garden in the Atlantic

Madeira is a veritable open-air garden in the middle of the Atlantic. Located 800 km from the African coast, it’s a destination to visit all year round. The wealth of flowers and tropical fruits grown on the hills facing the ocean, the gentle temperature of the air and sea, the natural swimming pools, the hikes in the heart of the island and along the levadas, the rich heritage – everything about Madeira is reminiscent of paradise, starting with the famous birds of paradise that can be seen everywhere.

The people of Madeira are welcoming and hospitable, a perfect reflection of the generous Portuguese character. The natural landscapes are breathtaking: immense mountains, jagged cliffs, lush green forests, sunsets over the ocean, incredible botanical gardens – the diversity of these landscapes captivates the traveler. The island is also renowned for its wine, embroidery, the delicious Bolo de mel and its spectacular New Year’s Eve fireworks display, considered the largest in the world. From Funchal to Santana and all the way to Porto Moniz, join us for an adventure on this enchanting island.
