HOLIDAYS IN MADEIRA

Madeira's capital, Funchal, enjoys a spectacular hillside setting. It boasts fine renaissance architecture, cobbled streets and smart little squares, and this is where most of the museums, art galleries and markets are to be found. Historical monuments include forts, old churches and the 15th-century Sé Cathedral.

Further afield in the countryside, you can see sugar and banana plantations and vineyards that produce the famous fortified wine. If you’re looking for a walking holiday, you’ll relish the chance to walk along the network of "levadas" – the paths beside the irrigation channels that criss-cross the land.

Holidays to Madeira wouldn't be complete without sampling the local cuisine, such as espetada (beef on skewers) and caldeirada, a fish stew. And every visitor should try the famous toboggan run from Monte to Funchal, where traditionally dressed conductors guide you down the hill in a wicker sleigh.

The staff at Atlantic have given their top 10 reasons to take your holiday in Madeira:

  • It's the perfect place for a sophisticated and relaxing break.
  • The people are warm and hospitable.
