General Tips: A day in Porto Santo
  • Tip Rating:
  • Favorite Thing: When in Madeira I would suggest a day trip to Porto Santo. First of all it offers a beautiful sandy beach and of course the ferry trip which gives you the opportunity of seeing Madeira from the ship Madeira with its rugged coastline.
    Besides the beach there is not much to do and see. It is really a desert island

    Fondest Memory: It was hot and there was not much shelter on the beach so we went to a hotel which was on the beach and rented an umbrella also we were able to change and have a shower.
    It was wonderful getting into the water and enjoying the ocean.

    General Tips: Airport
  • Tip Rating: [Not enough ratings yet]
  • Favorite Thing: You have an excellent view of the airport from the ship on the way to Porto Santo.
    10 km long, gold-yellow sand beach makes Santo an attractive beach resort also known as "Ilha Dourada", golden island. In August the beach is the goal of many Madeirans and Portuguese, the remaining months you can have the beach to yourself. Within three-hours by taxi you have seen most of the island.
