Enjoying Madeira's lush nature
The garden of Quinta da Serra is just a taste of what awaits you outside. The center of the island is full of natural sights, which are best explored on foot. To name just one of the most famous hikes, climb to the roof of the island: Pico Ruivo. Culminating at 1862 meters above sea level, the path to get there is very well laid out and promises a breathtaking view of the island and the ocean.
Visit the sights of the southern coast of the Portuguese archipelago
Not far from the hotel, many varied discoveries for all tastes await you. Among them:
Cape Girão. A cliff almost 600 meters high, it is one of the highest on the European continent. The most daring will venture on the glass platform overhanging the void for guaranteed thrills;
The Ethnographic Museum of Madeira. Located in Ribeira Brava, in a historical building, it is the ideal place to learn more about the island's history and rich culture.
Explore Funchal, the island's capital
Funchal, Madeira's main city, is well worth a visit, with many things not to be missed:
The charming historical center. Be seduced by the remains of the colonial era, the decorated doors of the Santa Maria district or the beautiful cathedral;
The Madeira Botanical Garden. Nestled on the heights of the city and accessible by cable car, this paradise of lush vegetation will make you spend a pleasant moment.
