We would also suggest visiting the most iconic vineyard in Madeira -Faja dos Padres. Beautiful place where you can enjoy the beach, taste the best Madeira wines (Malvasia Candida, produced only in that vineyard), have lunch, walk through their banana and mango plantation. Definitely our favorite place on the island.

Last but not the least, Madeira wine tasting – we are, obviously, crazy about Madeira wine – but the good stuff, not the cooking condiment. For tasting we suggest:
- D’Oliveiras- in the city center, 2 Rua dos Ferreiros 107
- Barbeito– Estrada da Ribeira Garcia,Câmara de Lobos
- Blandy’s wine lodge –in the city center, Avenida Arriaga 28
