Islands of Portugal: Madeira Island Aerials

Madeira, a semi-autonomous Portuguese island off the coast of Africa, is a well-known vacation destination — at least to Europeans. The island is one of four in the archipelago of Madeira and offers British-style hotels and Michelin-starred restaurants as well as plenty of adventurous ways to experience the island’s waterfalls and lush landscapes.

Madeira is a short ferry ride from Spain’s Canary Islands, and under two hours by air from both the Azores and mainland Portugal, making it a convenient multi-day stop as part of a longer regional itinerary.

‘A man’s culture is essentially the sum of his memories,’ wrote José Manuel Melim Mendes in his bilingual book Memories of Porto Santo and Madeira. If so, the collective mental culture of Madeira island is surely one of kaleidoscopic richness: aquamarine waves, violet hydrangea, emerald forests and purple cumulonimbus. Here be sounds of cracking shorelines, whale songs and wind whistled peaks.

Madeira is an oddly unique geographical and cultural blip—a rich little universe of rough mountains and lush slopes slapped by Atlantic breakers off the coast of Africa.
