TOUR DESCRIPTION
Enjoy the romantic moments before sunset on a relaxing cruise along the west coast of Funchal, reviving old routes of passenger and cargo vessels while admiring the wonderful view of southwest Madeira Island. Taste Madeira wine and feel the peaceful ambiance surrounding you on a blue and green background.
Departing from Funchal marina, just next to the main pier, your evening cruise heads west to Camara de Lobos, a typical fishing village which Winston Churchill used to paint. You will have the chance to enjoy the beautiful landscape and feel the cool sea breeze stroking your face and relax. The route that will be followed is the same of the old passenger and cargo vessels known as "Carreireiros" which, on the beginning of the 20th century, regularly linked the villages of the south cost of the island.
A toast, to celebrate your relaxing sea trip and holidays in this amazing island, will be made with the famous Madeira wine, just before the boat turns back. The way back is nearer the coast so you may appreciate the geological formations and the stunning cliffs emerging from the crystalline waters. If you are lucky, maybe you will be visited by some dolphins, turtles, whales or some rare seabirds.
