Private Jeep Tour To The Best Of South Madeira Island

Valleys, mountains, the plateau and the seashore make this expedition to the sometimes forgotten Southwest side of the island a trip to remember. The diversity of this excursion is amazing.

Ponta do Pargo where the coastline was too dangerous for navigation and for this reason a lighthouse was built on top of the rock. This lighthouse is the highest situated one in Portugal.

Paul do Mar, a charming fishing village and the neighbouring Jardim do Mar, are privileged spots for surfers who can challenge the waves, considered by some the best in Europe.

Calheta, it is thought that the origin of the name derives from the small bay or cove, which serves as its port, where Zarco entered when he intended to go ashore.

Next off to the rhum factory “Sociedade de Engenhos da Calheta“ where you can observe the machinery used in the manufacture of rhum and sugar cane honey and taste the traditional honey cake and typical Poncha.
