What to expect

Madeira's southwest coast is the star of this all-inclusive cruise on 'Living Sea'. And after setting out from Funchal port, you'll head up the less-explored coast to Cais da Lapa for some swimming. The best part is that with a maximum of 52 guests on board, you'll have all the space and attentive service you need to enjoy a day at sea. Jorge, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘You'll see the drama of Madeira's landscapes on this cruise. We'll pass by Cabo Girão, the second-highest sea cliffs in the world. The viewpoint at the top is often really busy, so you can enjoy seeing the cape from a unique – and much calmer – perspective.'

Settle in on deck with a cold drink in hand, and feel the Atlantic breeze in your hair. You'll glide along the intensely green coastline – soon coming upon Cabo Girão, which towers out of the sea at a height of 580 meters. You'll get to cool off in the clear waters of Cais da Lapa, where boats from no other company stop, while your 'Living Sea' crew prepares a lunch of homemade dishes.

The perfect pairing for your tasty lunch is wine from the Alentejo region. Jorge says, ‘Alentejo wines are some of Portugal's finest. The reds have juicy flavours of berries, vanilla and spice. The whites are known for hints of tropical fruit, citrus and have a balanced minerality.' Make the most of the relaxing on-board experience with your group before sailing back down the coastline – hopefully accompanied by some curious dolphins or sea turtles.

    I loved how they slowed the boat so not to disturb the pilot whales. The south coast was also interesting. Highly recommend
