Section 01 — Positioning
Madeira is the eternal spring: a subtropical island, open all year round.
Five hundred miles southwest of the mainland, Madeira lines up dramatic cliffs, levadas (over 1,600 km of canals turned hiking trails), a flower-filled capital, Funchal, and a one-of-a-kind fortified wine. Four hours from Paris, eighteen to twenty-five degrees year-round: an immersive, dependable event destination, summer and winter alike.
The island, the levadas, the wine.
Three readings of Madeira: the volcanic relief, the trails and Funchal, the wine and the ocean. All on a single island, open all year.
i.
The volcanic island.
The relief rises fast and drops sheer into the ocean.
- A volcanic island, peaking at Pico Ruivo (1,862 m), subtropical micro-climate of 18–25 °C all year
- Laurisilva forest, UNESCO-listed natural World Heritage
- Cabo Girão, Europe's second-highest cliff (580 m), with a panoramic skywalk
ii.
The levadas & Funchal.
You walk beside the water, you slide down by toboggan.
- Over 1,600 km of levadas, irrigation canals turned hiking trails
- Funchal: a flower-filled capital, the Monte–Funchal panoramic cable car, tropical garden
- Carreiros do Monte: a traditional 2-km wicker-toboggan descent, steered by two carreiros
iii.
The wine & the sea.
The table and the ocean do the rest.
- Madeira wine, a unique fortified wine: aged by estufagem or canteiro, vintages up to 150 years old
- More than 28 species of cetaceans observable offshore (whales, sperm whales, dolphins)
- Direct flights from Paris, Lyon, Brussels, Geneva, London and Amsterdam
