LEVADAS<br />

TO DO<br />

<strong>experimente</strong><br />

EXPLORE A PÉROLA DO ATLÂNTICO<br />

O que é imperativo experimentar são as Levadas — trilhos interiores que<br />

cruzam a ilha. Uns mais difíceis para os aventureiros, outros, acessíveis<br />

a qualquer pessoa. São a melhor maneira de atravessar a Laurissilva<br />

(Património Mundial da UNESCO) onde a comunhão com a Natureza<br />

é perfeita.<br />

Devido ao clima, é possível praticar modalidades náuticas, terrestres<br />

ou aéreas em qualquer altura do ano. Poderá optar também por fazer<br />

excursões pela ilha: a nordeste conheça Santana e as pitorescas casinhas;<br />

a noroeste, mergulhe nas piscinas naturais do Porto Moniz. Caso pretenda<br />

disfrutar das peculiares praias de calhau rolado, a oeste do Funchal fica<br />

a sedutora praia de Fajã dos Padres, onde a transparência das águas<br />

convida à prática de mergulho.<br />

Na Madeira, vive-se um espírito de folia e celebração todo o ano.<br />

As festividades mais concorridas são a exibição dos Fogos de Artifício<br />

na noite do Reveillon, o Carnaval, a Festa da Flor na Primavera<br />

e o Festival do Atlântico no Verão.<br />

EXPLORE THE PEARL OF THE ATLANTIC OCEAN<br />

The Levadas — interior trails crossing the island — are one attraction not<br />

to be missed. Some of the more difficult ones are for real adventurers,<br />

while others are accessible to everybody. They are the best way to cross<br />

the Laurissilva Woods (a UNECSO World Heritage), where communion<br />

with Nature is perfect.<br />

TO SEE<br />

TO EAT<br />

Thanks to the island’s climate, it is possible to practice nautical, terrestrial<br />

and aerial sports during any season of the year. Visitors can also go<br />

on excursions on the island: in the northeast, they can get to know Santana<br />

and its picturesque houses; in the northwest, you can dive in the natural<br />

swimming pools of Porto Moniz. If you want to enjoy the peculiar pebble<br />

beaches, in the Western part of Funchal you will find the Fajã dos Padres<br />

beach, where the transparent waters will invite you to dive.<br />

On Madeira, the spirit of celebration is sensed throughout the whole year.<br />

The festivities attracting the most visitors are the Fireworks during New<br />

Years Eve night, Carnival, Flower Festival during spring and the Atlantic<br />

Festival in the summer.
