🎯 What to Do
Funchal rewards slow mornings and steep walks.
Levada Dos Tornos: A gentle trail alongside the island's old irrigation channels, ending at Monte Palace. Funchal Cable Car: A 15-minute ride over rooftops and gardens up to Monte, with the Atlantic behind you. Wicker toboggan ride: The old way down from Monte: two men, a wicker sled, a straight run through the streets. Mercado dos Lavradores: Funchal's produce market, stacked with tropical fruit you won't find at home.
🗺️ Where to Go From Here
Madeira has more than one island worth seeing.
Porto Santo: A golden sand beach the mainland doesn't have, a 2.5-hour ferry from Funchal. Curral das Freiras: A village tucked inside an extinct volcanic crater, 40 minutes by road. Câmara de Lobos: A fishing village with cheaper drinks and a Churchill connection, 20 minutes west.
