Azores and Madeira – The Atlantic Jewels of Lusitania
Madeira - The Exotic Haven of Portugal
On par with the scorching heat of Africa lies one of the most charismatic and beloved destinations among the Portuguese: Madeira Island.
With its lush green mountains, steep cliffs, and palm trees welcoming you from every direction, Madeira feels alive—rich in both flora and fauna.
Funchal, the island's more residential hub, is a perfect starting point to explore Madeira from end to end: from its elevated gardens with Japanese touches to the western coast, known for its hotels and resorts, and the eastern side, where tradition still breathes in every corner.
For those who enjoy a warm breeze all year round, Madeira is undeniably inviting.
A stay of at least four days is recommended to truly explore the island—and perhaps even make a side trip to Porto Covo.
Açores - A terceira ilha do Atlântico
Between the European and American continents, in the midst of the wild, green, humid, and rocky landscape, lies the Azorean archipelago.
Among them, sits the island of Terceira, with its friendly inhabitants. Rain, clouds, sun, wind, heat—everything converges in this borderland between two continents.
Also, at its core, there exists a tranquility that is hard to find in a more bustling world.
Terceira Island has everything for amateur and experienced travelers, those passionate about nature and the wild, or even for those seeking to explore its serene heart.
Two days are recommended to explore the city, and it's best to rent a car to visit all its cardinal points.
