Funchal is the Portuguese capital city of the island Madeira. Madeira is located almost due north of the Spanish Canary islands. The airport on the island is called the Madeira airport or the Christians Ropmaldo airport.
Funchal is a thriving town that was first inhabited in around 1424. Funchal is on the coast and is backed by hills, with the properties stepping up the hill, giving them all a fantastic view of the Atlantic. Funchal has a great harbor, beautiful gardens, and some great historical sites too.
One of the best ways to get around this city is to hire a motorcycle or rent a scooter. It is much better than trying to navigate such a populated city with narrow cobbles roads with a car. A motorcycle also seems to just naturally flow with the way of life on the island and is great for getting up and out of the city to benefit from some of those greater views.
It makes it far simpler to hop off and visit one of the cities boutiques or restaurants too. If you are up for a little adventure, why not go whale watching or take a day trip to one of the volcanic pools. There is even the opportunity to go for a Jeep Safari in Pico do Areeiro in Ponta de são Lourenço.
This is only 34kms from the city. If you fancy a day trip to another city, then Sanatana is only around 31kms if you are willing to take the mountain pass, perhaps best done via motorcycle.
