Madeira

Madeira shore excursions with Bakadi Dreams introduce the island of flowers, a pearl of nature in the Atlantic. Indeed, few places in Europe hold so much variety in around 800 square kilometres. Moreover, the island blooms in every season, which makes any time of year worth visiting.

Cliffs, Valleys and Levadas

Steep coastlines drop into the sea, while deep green valleys cut inland towards the peaks. Ancient laurel forest, protected by UNESCO, still covers much of the interior. Above all, the levadas, the network of irrigation channels built over centuries, thread through the mountains and make superb walking routes. As a result, there is always something new around the next bend.

Your Day Ashore in Madeira

Ships dock in Funchal, right beside the old town, so the market hall and the historic centre are within walking distance. From there, tours reach the west coast with the lava pools of Porto Moniz, the east with Santana, or the sea for dolphin watching. Therefore, we match the route to your time in port. Finally, comfortable shoes and a light rain jacket are always sensible here.
